In a simple manner, the number Of equilibrium conditions are 4 in question those are verticle force horigentle force and moment and having hinge at B having a moment is zero. Compare the option with equilibrium conditions we get option B and D are matching but hinge will not change. So, option B is correct.

D is the correct option. Internal hinge is converted into Roller support. If not provide Roller support then the beam will rotate about a hinge.
So, D is the correct option for this question.
