We all know in the notes of a piano, the white note before two consecutive black keys is C. If we play a series of 8 white notes up to the next C, we will have played the 'diatonic' scale of C major, and we play 1-3-5 together to play a C major chord.
The next white note up from C is D. All major (diatonic) scales follow the formula of intervals: root note, full tone, full tone, semitone, full tone, full tone, full tone, semitone. To follow this pattern for D major, requires the F note to be sharpened by a semitone to the first black key of the group of 3 and the C to be sharpened by a semitone to the first black note of the group of two. The Key Signature (top left of a sheet of music) identifies the starting key of the piece by a series of sharps (#), when a natural (white) key is raised by a semitone, or flats (b) when a natural is lowered by a semitone.
The key signature for D Major is (##), two sharps.
The way you would modulate from D major to Bb major would be passing through a D minor chord then modulating to G minor to get to Bb major.
