using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;

namespace interview
{
class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        int[] arr = new int[5]{1,3,4,5,5};
        int[] arr1 = GetOriginalScore(3,arr);
        for (int i = 0; i < arr1.Length; i++)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(arr1[i]);
        }
    }
    public static int[] GetOriginalScore(int input1, int[] input2)
    {

        for (int i = 0; i < input1; i++)
        {
            int a=((3 * input2[i] + 3) / 3);
            if (a == (input2[i] + 1))
            {
                return  input2[i];
            }

        }

public static int[] GetOriginalScore(int input1, int[] input2)

here, you specify that you want to return an array. If you want to return an element:

public static int GetOriginalScore(int input1, int[] input2)

Then you might want to mark the array as an out parameter. Or rewrite your question and tell us what you want to accomplish.

You need to change the code from,

public static int[] GetOriginalScore(int input1, int[] input2)

to

public static int GetOriginalScore(int input1, int[] input2)

The function will look like this

public static int GetOriginalScore(int input1, int[] input2)
    {

        for (int i = 0; i < input1; i++)
        {
            int a=((3 * input2[i] + 3) / 3);
            if (a == (input2[i] + 1))
            {
                return  input2[i];
            }
            else
            {
                return 0;
            }
        }
    }
