Repeat C program and output the scores obtained by user

I have written a program in C language. The program is designed for primary school students in Grades 1-2. Two integers are randomly selected, the numbers are either added or subtracted to form an equation, and the students are asked to solve the equation.

Code criteria:
a. Each round of the game consists of 10 questions that are not to be repeated. 10 marks for each question. Each round of games is required to be set anew and is not have the same questions as the previous rounds.

b. Only the addition and subtraction within 100 is allowed, the sum and difference of the two numbers should not exceed the range of 100, and is not to have a negative value.

c. For each question, players have 3 chances to enter their answers. 10 points are awarded for the first correct attempt, 7 points for the second attempt, 5 points for the third attempt, zero points if all 3 attempts failed. When an incorrect answer is entered, a message should appear prompting the student to re-enter the answer. Output the correct answer if all 3 attempts are used in the form "No, the answer is X".

d. At the end of the test, a message should appear prompting the player to choose "Show results", by entering the letter "S", "Play another round", by entering the letter "P", and "Quit", by entering the letter "Q". If the player entered "S" after one round of the game, output the player's score (marks/100). If the player chooses "Show results" after multiple rounds of the game, the output should include the player's highest score/%, lowest score/%, and the average score/% of all games played. If the player enters "Q", the program ends.

e. Include fault tolerance function, a simple menu interface, necessary notes. The program should also meet the requirements of modularization and structurization.

I know I might use a while loop to repeat the program but I don't know where to place it.

Besides, I have no idea how to output the scores as required in criteria d, I have only managed to set the program to include certain words of encouragement for a designated range of scores.

Lastly, how do I include a fault tolerance function? After inputting the letter "a" into one of the equations, the program just ends. I need a message to prompt the user to input a number.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What I have tried:

C++

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>

struct struc
{
    int a;
    int b;
    int c;
    int add;
    int grade;
};

int sj(int n)
{
    int t;
    t = rand() % n;
    return t;
}

void ctm_i(struct struc *t)
{
    t->a = sj(101);
    t->c = sj(4);
    if (t->c == 1)
    {
        t->b = sj(101 - (t->a));
        t->add = (t->a) + (t->b);
    }
    else
    {
        t->b = sj((t->a) + 1);
        t->add = (t->a) - (t->b);
    }
    t->grade = 10;
}

void tcm_i(struct struc *t, int n)
{
    int ad;
    printf(" ********************************************************************************\n");
    printf(" ................................................................................\n");
    printf(" Question %d\n\n",n+1);
    printf(" You have 3 attempts for this question\n\n");
    if (t->c == 1)
        printf(" %d+%d= ", t->a, t->b);
    else
        printf(" %d-%d= ", t->a, t->b);
    scanf(" %d", &ad);

    if (ad == t->add)
    {
        t->grade = 10;
        printf("\n Very good, you earned 10 marks\n\n");
    }
    else
    {
        printf("\n Sorry, you have 2 attempts remaining\n\n");
        scanf(" %d", &ad);

Looks like you have done most of the work but now you have to debug your program. You should divide your code in more subfunctions and structs and more expressive names for functions and variables. By that you will find a good place for your while loop.

For that reason most IDE have a big toolset for debugging. Read this Debugger tutorial to get some knowledge how to do it.

As suggested, move some of your code from the main function to a dedicated one, then call it repeadtly.
Something like the following code

C

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <limits.h>
#include <time.h>

struct struc
{
  int a;
  int b;
  int c;
  int add;
  int grade;
};

int sj(int n)
{
  int t;
  t = rand() % n;
  return t;
}

void ctm_i(struct struc *t)
{
  t->a = sj(101);
  t->c = sj(4);
  if (t->c == 1)
  {
    t->b = sj(101 - (t->a));
    t->add = (t->a) + (t->b);
  }
  else
  {
    t->b = sj((t->a) + 1);
    t->add = (t->a) - (t->b);
  }
  t->grade = 10;
}

void tcm_i(struct struc *t, int n)
{
  int ad;
  printf(" ********************************************************************************\n");
  printf(" ................................................................................\n");
  printf(" Question %d\n\n",n+1);
  printf(" You have 3 attempts for this question\n\n");
  if (t->c == 1)
    printf(" %d+%d= ", t->a, t->b);
  else
    printf(" %d-%d= ", t->a, t->b);
  scanf(" %d", &ad);

  if (ad == t->add)
  {
    t->grade = 10;
    printf("\n Very good, you earned 10 marks\n\n");
  }
  else
  {
    printf("\n Sorry, you have 2 attempts remaining\n\n");
    scanf(" %d", &ad);
    if (ad == t->add)
    {
      t->grade = 7;
    printf("\n Good, you earned 7 marks\n\n");
    }
    else
    {
      printf("\n Sorry, you have 1 attempt remaining\n\n");
      scanf(" %d",&ad);
      if (ad == t->add)
      {
        t->grade = 5;
        printf("\n Not bad, you earned 5 marks\n\n");
      }
      else
      {
        t->grade = 0;
        printf("\n Failure, 0 mark\n\n");
