Please give me answer
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 the midpoint of the opposite side.
The centroid divides the median into segments in the ratio of 2 : 1, where the longer side
is the segment from the vertex to the centroid.
