You don't have to learn anything in particular to solve Div. 2 B, just practice more and maybe a little bit harder problems.

      div2B is almost equal to leetcode medium, if you cant solve B in ~1.5 hours try to set a timer when pratice maybe it helps

      when you able to solve medium in ~40 min in average, you should be able to solve B in contest time

do more virtual participations and consistently solve B and C problems. Also make sure to upsolve one or two problems after a contest.

Div2 B problem often Math/Greedy/Implemtation. Then you should try to practice that type of topic more :)
