There are basically two ways to install LLVM on your Ubuntu 18.04 machine:

  • Source
  • Binary

Considering your question, it seems you would like to have a binary version of LLVM. Therefore you can install LLVM from your Ubuntu 18.04 terminal as following:

First of all, you should update packages as following:

  • sudo apt-get update

However, for custom LLVM i.e. in your case LLVM 7:

  • sudo apt-get install -y llvm-7
  • sudo apt-get install -y llvm-7 llvm-7-dev llvm-7-tools clang-7

Do you want some LLVM-7 examples?

  • sudo apt-get -y install llvm-7-examples

Do you want to remove LLVM-6?

  • sudo apt-get purge llvm-6.0 clang-6.0
  • sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:kxstudio-team/builds

For default LLVM installation you should run following (not for your case):

However, currently the last version of LLVM is LLVM 13.0. 1. It is better to install the latest version.
