They asking load only not moment. Moment at the support A will be zero, Not reaction.

According to general assumption Ra is 1st support from left. And answer is (15/8).

Point A is not shown in the figure. Then how can anyone calculate reaction at A?

Rb * 5 = 1 * 10 * 5.
So Rb = 10,
Ra + Rb = 10,
Therefore Ra = zero.
So Rb = 10,
Ra + Rb = 10,
Therefore Ra = zero.

First of all, where is A and where is B we can't assume on our own.

Yes, correct @Vikas.
By moment distribution method Ra is 1.875 T.
By moment distribution method Ra is 1.875 T.

No, it is right and the answer is zero just use the basics.

I think both are you wrong where is Ra in the figure.

In simply support the end moments are zero.
