Which witch burning in Britain had the most deaths?

No witches were burnt in Britain, they were either hung to death or crushed under rocks. Approximately 4 to 10 witches were hung at one time most of the time, but I couldn't find any record of a largest number of witches executed at one time in Britain. There were 11 people both male and female hanged for witchcraft in the Lancashire witch trials of 1612 but this was a rare thing in most cases in Britain the accused were acquitted.

Would Macbeth have killed Duncan if the witches had not predicted he would become king or was it truly his fate with or without the witches?

It's likely that Macbeth would not have killed Duncan if the witches had not planted the idea of his kingship in his mind. While Macbeth struggled with ambition, the witches' prophecy ignited and intensified his desires, leading him to take action. Without the witches, it's possible that Macbeth's fate would have unfolded differently.
