It makes no difference that the triangle is scalene.

If the coordinates of the three vertices are (x1, y1), (x2, y2) and (x3, y3), then the coordinates of the midpoint (centroid) is [(x1 + x2 + x3)/3, (y1 + y2 + y3)/3].

Alternatively, join any two vertices to the midpoint of the opposite side. They (and the third median) will meet at the centroid.
