6 ??

yes how

centroid divides medians in a ratio of 2:1....

okkk got it thanks

Answer 1

The Centroid is a point of concurrency of the triangle. It is the point where all 3 medians intersect and is often described as the triangle's center of gravity . It is formed by the intersection of the medians. ... The centroid divides each median in a ratio of 2:1. 

Smallest median length = 6( 4+2)
