Although its a nice attempt to learn programming, few suggestions which were missing in ur code block:
1. Naming conventions. Kindly refer C# programming conventions on Microsoft site.
2. Use of same local variables.
3. Try dividing your logic into small methods rather writing complete code block in one method.
4. Provide proper comments.
5. Don't write your logic in Main Block itself. Create methods and write your logic there. Happy Coding

Solution 1

It's simple enough really. You have mismatched { and } somewhere. Though, in the way you posted your code, it's pretty much impossible for anyone to tell where because it's not formatted properly.

EDIT
------------------------------
Now that it is formatted properly, two of your if statements are missing closing } characters.

Also, to make debugging and following this code easier, break this code out into multiple methods at each step in your "conversation" with the user.

A 5 for this. But assuming OP is realy 13...(?) I would foregive that :)

Dave Kreskowiak 11-Sep-15 16:22pm

The question was locked for editing for 10 minutes when I looked at it and there were no PRE tags around the code, so that's the best answer I could give at the time.

stop stop. it was not my intention to attack you and also not to criticize your answer in any point...why you think a vote a 5?
sorry...maybe my english is the weak point :(

I took no offense at all.

The

if (answer2 == num05 * num06)

below seems to be missing closng brace.

C#

else
						{
							Console.WriteLine("Go gack to school");
							Console.WriteLine("<press the="" anykey="" to="" continue="">");
							Console.ReadLine();
								Random numberGenerator2 = new Random();
								int num05 = numberGenerator1.Next(11, 31);
								int num06 = numberGenerator1.Next(11, 31);
								Console.WriteLine("What is " + num03 + " times " + num04 + " ?");
								int answer2 = Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine());
								if (answer2 == num05 * num06)
								{
									Console.WriteLine("Well done you know what " + num05 + " times " + num06 + " is! Congrats");
									Console.WriteLine("<press the="" anykey="" to="" continue="">");
									Console.ReadKey();
									Console.WriteLine("Lets so some more...");
						}
					}
