They are probably .gnucash files (file extensions do not need to be
three letters).  I say 'probably' because you can override that when
you save it.  To find the folder where you saved the file if you open
it in gnucash then click File > Save As the browse window that pops up
will default to the folder where you saved it.  Gnucash should show
you then name of the file in the window title bar when you have
gnucash open.
