Question

In what ratio does the centroid divide each median?

• A. 2:1
• B. 1:2
• C. 1:1
• D. 2:2

Answer 1

The correct option is A 2:1

• If we divide the median into 3 equal parts, then the centroid divides the median in the ratio 2:1

In this given figure,
A is the centroid which divides the median A'B in the ratio 2:1.
i.e A'A : AB = 2 : 1
