I would strongly suggest you read the posts in my signature profile, and Kali's own website.

WHY are you using Kali? A distro that the creators say is aimed towards Linux experts, and even then for security/pentesting only??

OP: if you don't know how to use "apt", you have no business running Kali. Read the Kali stickies on the front page and the ones thoughtfully provided by TB0ne.
