Why does apt-get install r-base install 3.2.3 instead of 3.4.0 in R?

I am trying to install the latest version of R (3.4.0) due to some incompatibility issues with downloading a package called "Slam". I downloaded the tar.gz file from 3.4.0, but there are some problems with the make file to install. I deleted the r-base 3.2.3. Now when I install R again, I get the same version instead of the update version. I even ran the sudo apt-get update command, but in vain. Help in this matter will be appreciated.

you need to install from the CRAN repository, not from ubuntu. add key then repository update and apt-get

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys E298A3A825C0D65DFD57CBB651716619E084DAB9

sudo add-apt-repository 'deb [arch=amd64,i386] https://cran.rstudio.com/bin/linux/ubuntu xenial/'

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install r-base
