Hi! , OK - there are some questions that need to be answered ,
How long was the engine running before you shut it down?
How did the engine " feel " when it was running ? ( strong or weak? )
Did you " rev " the engine and get a response to opening the throttle ?
Was the engine allowed to idle?
How much fuel was in the tank?
Have you checked the filter?
Have you removed and checked the fuel filler cap for faults?
Does the engine want to start? ( splutters? )
After cranking the engine several times without starting were the plugs wet ? ( if wet-intermittent spark problem / if dry -fuel supply problem )
Are all the electrical connections tight /not corroded ? .
I'm sure there are more questions to come but these are a common start point.
Hope these questions help .
