Question

The centroid divides each median in the ratio of

• A. 1:2
• B. 2:1
• C. 3:1
• D. 1:3

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Correct answer: 2:1 

Explanation:
In a triangle, the centroid is the point where the three medians intersect. 
The centroid divides each median in the ratio: \[ \text{Vertex} : \text{Midpoint of opposite side} = 2:1 \] That is, the centroid is located two-thirds of the way from a vertex along the median.

Hence, the correct ratio is 2:1.
