How do I create these math symbols in Keynote?

I am trying to recreate something I was able to do in Keynote years ago but I forgot how. It looks like this:



my problem is with the math symbols. In my presentation it looks like this now:



Basically, I'm not getting a decent 'Q' (math symbol for the set of rational numbers) and I am also not able to get both Q and R look the same.

Apple's implementation in its equation editor does not permit any \usepackage statements that would allow you to change the font used in creating the Q or R characters. Years ago, Keynote did not have a built-in equation editor, and you probably used MathType or some other external approach that had formal Math fonts installed.


Now, with the Keynote equation editor you are limited to \mathbb{Q} or \mathbb{R}.
