@Asif.

By solving the equation, we get wl^2/32.

@Asif

By deflection of beams first find out value of middle prop reaction as:

(5wl^4)/384EI = (pl^3)/48EI.
p = 5wl/8.

After this B.M at the center is;
for UDL Wl^2/8 n for point load Pl/4.
therefore we have UDL minus point load.
Wl^2/8 - Pl/4.
Wl^2/8 - ((5/8) wl)/4 substitute value of P.
then we get WL/32.
