Answer:

You can't download Firefox on a Chromebook. You can only use Chrome. If you're computer savvy, you can download Crouton and install one of the Linux OS. I've done this on my Chromebook and set it up to use Linux Mint Cinnamon. Once you're in whatever Linux OS you choose to install, you can download Firefox. I know because I've done it on this machine I'm typing. Here's a link on how to do it. http://www.howtogeek.com/162120/how-to-install-ubuntu-linux-on-your-chromebook-with-crouton/ The link explains how to do it using Ubuntu, which is another Linux OS, but from that page you should be able to figure out how to do it. There are also some YouTube videos on installing Ubuntu or Linux Mint on a Chromebook. If you mess it up, you can always just reset your Chromebook to factory settings. I did it first using Crouton to install Linux Mint XFCE, but I didn't like it so I reset the chromebook to factory settings and installed Linux Mint Cinnamon instead.
