For the maximum positive bending moment to be nearly equal to negative bending moment L should be greater than 2L1. So, L1 is less than 0.5L. Therefore the answer is .35L.

For equal moment L1 = 0.35 L,
For max bending moment is minimum L1 = 0.207 L,
If point load at both ends & for equal deflection condition L1= 0.207L.
For max bending moment is minimum L1 = 0.207 L,
If point load at both ends & for equal deflection condition L1= 0.207L.

BM at centre = WL1^2/8 + wl1L1^2/2.
Bm at support = WL1^2/2.
WL1^2/8 + wl1L1^2/2 = WL1^2/2.
= 0.207.
Bm at support = WL1^2/2.
WL1^2/8 + wl1L1^2/2 = WL1^2/2.
= 0.207.

@Kajal.
How come 4a^2?
How come 4a^2?

Correct ans is D; see how.
Max. Positive B.M = W/8 ( L^2 - 4a^2).
Max. Negative B.M = Wa^2 /2.
W/8( L^2 - 4a^2 ) = Wa^2 /2 ( acc. to quest);
Sove nd get a = 0.35 L.
Here (L1 = a = overhang).
Max. Positive B.M = W/8 ( L^2 - 4a^2).
Max. Negative B.M = Wa^2 /2.
W/8( L^2 - 4a^2 ) = Wa^2 /2 ( acc. to quest);
Sove nd get a = 0.35 L.
Here (L1 = a = overhang).
