Unable to locate package Sagemath

Newbie question:

I have been trying to get Sagemath installed on a Win10 PC. Have installed WSL and Ubuntu 24.04. I have tried $ sudo apt install sagemath however, it returns the message "Unable to locate package Sagemath". Earlier, it came back with a more verbose comment "Package sagemath 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".

Would much appreciate any workable advise to get me started on SageMath / Win10 / WSL / Ubuntu24.04.

Towards the working end to complete the SageMath install, I find that much of the information available on the web is vague and imprecise.

Many Thanks... Shahid / Shaussie.
