Program has more than one entry point defined? CS0017 Problem with main()?

Question

When I try an run the code below in visual studio I get the following error : "Program has more than one entry point defined. Compile with /main to specify the type that contains the entry point. "

I've tried finding other entry points but am not that experienced with c# and having trouble with this. To my understanding everything should be correct.
