If your device is a Galaxy Tab 3 10.0 then you have an Intel Android device. Adobe never released an Intel versions of Adobe Flash Player. In addition Adobe has stopped releasing new versions of Flash.

You would need an ARM based Android device to play Flash content. In addition Google removed key bit of code that allowed Flash to work as of Android 4.4. Adobe Flash on Android does not have a future.
