we are given


AQ=18

and we have to find QE

we know that centroid divides median into 2:1

so, for median AE

we can write it as


AQ=(2)/(3) AE

now, we can plug AE


18=(2)/(3) *AE


AE=27

now, we can find QE


QE=(1)/(3) AE

we can plug AE=27

and we get


QE=(1)/(3) *27


QE=9..............Answer
