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.
