My brother ordered some memory sticks from Amazon, but it looks like what he ordered was for a Mac.

He's got a Dell Latitude 5550 laptop with Windows 10 Pro. I told him to run a crucial scan and order what they suggested, but he decided he'd order what he thought was the same thing from Amazon. The description says "Mac Compatible" but I'm not sure if that means it can be used in either a Mac or a Windows OS, or if it's strictly for a Mac OS.

I think I know the answer but I told him: "TexAgs -We Know Stuff" and I'd double check with The Nerdery

So no way a Dell Latitude and some innocuous Mac would have the same RAM slots, right?

based of a quick search, they should work.
