CMake installation issue on raspbian stretch

im having some troubles installing CMake on raspberry pi 3 running raspbian stretch.

I keep getting this error message when i run the command 

sudo apt-get install build-essential cmake pkg-config

The error message: 

> " Reading package lists... Done  Building dependency tree Reading
> state information... Done  Package CMake is not available, but is
> referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is
> missing, has been obsoleted, or  is only available from another source
> 
> E: Package 'cmake' has no installation candidate "

I've tried other installation methods like "pip install cmake" & "sudo apt-get install -y cmake" but all to no avail. Could you guys help me out? Is there a library i can extract from?

Thank you in advance.

Im running raspbian stretch 2018-03-13 installed on raspberry pi 3.
