How to uninstall SBT in Ubuntu?

My current installed SBT is corrupted and I want to reinstall it. The problem is I didn't install SBT through sudo apt-get command. I followed the tutorial here: Functional Programming Principles in Scala | Coursera.

Instructions that I followed from the webpage:

So how do I uninstall SBT on Ubuntu in the first place?

I tried running sudo apt-get remove sbt but it didn't work. These are the results of sudo apt-get remove sbt :

$ sudo apt-get remove sbt
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
Package 'sbt' is not installed, so not removed
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
  ax25-node libax25 libossp-uuid16 openbsd-inetd
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 324 not upgraded.

Open the file ~/.bashrc in an editor (create it if it doesn’t exist) and add the following line export PATH=/PATH/TO/YOUR/sbt/bin:$PATH

The path to your sbt/bin is already stored in your ~/.bashrc file. If you know the path to sbt/bin, you can delete the sbt directory and its contents manually from the terminal using sudo rm -r ./sbt/ from where you unpacked it.

Afterwards delete the obsolete export PATH=/PATH/TO/YOUR/sbt/bin:$PATH line from your ~/.bashrc file.
