Load of the beam uniformly distributed throughout its length at intensity w per unit length then the maximum deflection of the beam will be (wL^2 /8).
Now total weight (W) = w.L.
Hence put (w = W/L) in the maximum bending moment formula you will get (WL/8).
Now total weight (W) = w.L.
Hence put (w = W/L) in the maximum bending moment formula you will get (WL/8).

1/2*Wl/2*l/2.
= Wl^2/8.
= Wl^2/8.

Wl^2/8 is the correct answer.

I think WL^2/8.
The reaction at support = WL/2.
Shear force D is a rectangular shape.
Bending moment = area of Rectangle.
BMD = 1/2 L/2 WL/2 = WL^2/4.

BMD = 1/2 L/2 WL/2 = WL^2/4.

No, it should be WL^2/8.

I agree @Kallan.

wl= W,
So WL/8.
So WL/8.
