Problem installing steam in Ubuntu 16.04

Question

I have just install steam from the terminal as you can see:

But when I try to open steam as you can see:

And finally, if I continue with it I get this:

I have already install the Canonical packages from software update, I have tried use the .deb file from steam website but it also didn't work, it always shows me the same. Also, if I click on steam icon it shows me the same image 3.

If you're getting

Error: "You are missiing the following 32-bit libraries, and Steam may not run: libc.so.6"

try running:

sudo apt-get install libc6-i386

That alone won't help. Apt already tries to install that package but fails to do so. OP needs to enable the i386 foreign architecture first. See my linked question. -1 – David Foerster Jan 10 '18 at 19:27
