It is much more important to understand how you get that answer.

Make a sketch of your triangle.

The centroid is the intersection of all 3 medians of a triangle, two would be sufficient.
A median of a triangle is a line running from a vertex to <b>the midpoint</b> of the opposite side.
The centroid divides the median into segments in <b>the ratio of 2 : 1</b>, where the longer side
is the segment from the vertex to the centroid.
