How to create custom boxes with text inside?

I want to put my math notes on a WordPress blog. I always write my notes using Pages and they always have the following format:

Is it possible to replicate the above format in a WordPress post?

Unfortunately I don’t know CSS or HTML. The only thing I could do in WordPress was the following:

The most important thing for me is to delimit a theorem and its proof by a box. In addition, I would like the statement of the theorem to be highlighted in relation to its proof.

Thank you for your attention!

EDIT:

Below is the solution I found based on Valter Ekholm’s answer:

<div style="border: 1.5px solid black; background-color:#f0f0f0">
    
   <b>THEOREM 1:</b> [...]
   <br>

   <p style="background-color:#FFFFFF"> 
       <b>Proof:</b><br>
   
       [...]

       <br><br>
   </p>
</div>

With the above code you get the following result:

Method 1

In the page editor, switch to code-editor. Now your text will be within tags… probably a <p> tag.

Add css to the tag so it reads:

<p style="border: 1px solid gray"> ... </p>

Currently, to switch to code-editor, click the 3-dot-menu-button in the right top of the screen/window and then “Code Editor”.
