Macbeth became king after being persuaded by his wife, Lady Macbeth, to murder the original king of Scottland, Duncan. Once that was done, the thanes assumed Duncan's sons would be promoted to the throne, but they both ran away in fear they might be murdered as well. With that, Macbeth took advantage of his positioin by saying Malcom and Donalbain (Duncan's sons) killed Duncan so he could be king himself. It worked.

DevinMacbeth became king by assassinating the former king, Duncan. Kind Duncan was invited to stay at Macbeth's castle, and while Duncan was asleep, Macbeth had a hallucination of a dagger floating into Duncan's bedroom. Macbeth stole the two guards' daggers, and used them to kill Duncan. He then wiped the blood on the guards, and framed them. The guards were knocked unconscious by drugged wine that Lady Macbeth gave them. Many people say that Macbeth would have never committed the murder if it wasn't for Lady Macbeth since she continuously pushed Macbeth into it.
