Hinduism did not directly change into Buddhism. Rather, Buddhism emerged as a separate religious tradition in ancient India, influenced by the ideas and teachings of Hinduism. Buddhism incorporated some Hindu concepts and philosophies but also introduced new ideas, such as the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path, that differentiated it from Hinduism. Hinduism and Buddhism coexisted and developed alongside each other in ancient India.
They are called Dharmic religions, though each is very dissimilar to each other.
Buddha was against a few practices of Hinduism, like sacrifices, rituals, and castes. But he emphasized on the concept of 'dharma' just like hindus. Hinduism and Buddhism did not fight each other. Actually, for a long period of time Buddhism was like a sect of Hinduism.

Hinduism and Buddhism share many common effects on each other. Like Austerity (tapaḥ) Purity (shaucham) and Compassion (dayā) being part of both religions.

The greater variation in the teachings of Buddhism compared to Hinduism can be attributed to the decentralized nature of Buddhism. Unlike Hinduism, which has a more centralized structure with texts like the Vedas and Upanishads, Buddhism has multiple schools and traditions that have developed over time, each with its own interpretations and practices. Additionally, Buddhism spread to different regions with diverse cultural influences, leading to further variations in teachings and practices. This diversity in Buddhism reflects its adaptability to different cultural contexts and the emphasis on personal experience and interpretation in its teachings.
Sacred texts are shared between Hinduism and Buddhism, with both religions revering texts such as the Vedas and Upanishads. However, each tradition also has its own distinct scriptures, such as the Bhagavad Gita for Hindus and the Tripitaka for Buddhists.

Hinduism and Buddhism - there are many schools of each.
Judaism started in Canaan but it is present day Israel. Hinduism started in India. Buddhism started in India also. Christianity started in Israel. Islam started in Mecca.
Buddhism is a part of Hinduism in the sense that Christianity is a part of Judaism. "Buddha", or, Prince Siddhartha Gauthama was of the Sakya clan, a Hindu clan in present day Nepal. He was raised an orthodox Hindu and eventually went off to pursue enlightenment which was not an unusual option of that era for a man of his station and religion. One of the problems that Buddha had with Hinduism was the caste system and later when he was teaching he stressed the equality of human beings from a spiritual or karmic perspective. Buddha was a Hindu reformer and taught essentially Hindu teachings and practices. Much of what is called Buddhist practice is common to Hinduism. In this way Hinduism and Buddhism are related in much the same way that Judaism and Christianity are related, Christ being a Jew reformer. But no, to specifically answer the question: Buddhism is not formally a "part" of Hinduism. Then again, there is no such thing as "Buddhism" outside of the west any more than there is a such thing as Christism. In "Buddhist" countries the practice is referred to as "Dharma".
