Detailed explanation-1: -He confronts Macduff and bravely fights to the death. Macduff displays the “usurper’s cursed head” (shows Macbeth’s head) and acclaims Malcolm the new King of Scotland.
Detailed explanation-2: -A captain reports having seen Macbeth and Banquo fight bravely against the rebels and, in particular, Macbeth killed the traitorous MacDonwald.
Detailed explanation-3: -Banquo is a general in King Duncan’s army who fights bravely alongside Macbeth against Norwegians and rebel Scots. He is a friend of Macbeth – they both appear together at the start of the play. Banquo has one son, Fleance, and possibly ancestor to future kings (if the prophecy of the Witches is to be believed.)
Detailed explanation-4: -But history isn’t necessary to the story. The facts as laid out tell us enough: MacDonwald has betrayed Scotland, and was winning the battle until Macbeth arrives.
