The resulting info dialog will tell you the version; if you use the old NeXT style column display in Finder you don’t even need to use command-I, the version is displayed in the right-hand pane when Gnucash is selected.

And Windows users can open File Explorer and go to the folder
"C:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\bin". In that folder, right-click the
file gnucash.exe", select Properties, and look on the Details tab at
"Product Version".

(It's also possible in my Windows 10 to just hover the mouse over the
file and get a "file version", but that may not work in all versions of
Windows and I'm not clear on the connection between file version and
program version.)
