I need a code please to find duplicates in column A and find the numbers in column B and copy to column C separated by a /

As you can see there are 2 values in orange and 2 different numbers in B, the same with the values in yellow so I need the results like the second example below.

Thanks so much.
 

Excel Facts

Will the fill handle fill 1, 2, 3?
Yes! Type 1 in a cell. Hold down Ctrl while you drag the fill handle.
Give this a try with a copy of your worksheet.

VBA Code:
Sub Combine_Dupes()
  Dim d As Object
  Dim a As Variant
  Dim i As Long
 
  Set d = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
  With Range("A2:C" & Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row)
    a = .Value
    For i = 1 To UBound(a)
      If d.exists(a(i, 1)) Then
        d(a(i, 1)) = d(a(i, 1)) & " / " & a(i, 2)
      Else
        d(a(i, 1)) = a(i, 2)
      End If
    Next i
    For i = 1 To UBound(a)
      a(i, 3) = d(a(i, 1))
    Next i
    .Value = a
  End With
End Sub

Edit: Or you could try this marginally shorter one.

VBA Code:
Sub Combine_Dupes_v2()
  Dim d As Object
  Dim a As Variant
  Dim i As Long
  
  Set d = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
  With Range("A2:C" & Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row)
    a = .Value
    For i = 1 To UBound(a)
        d(a(i, 1)) = d(a(i, 1)) & " / " & a(i, 2)
    Next i
    For i = 1 To UBound(a)
      a(i, 3) = d(a(i, 1))
    Next i
    .Value = a
    .Columns(3).TextToColumns DataType:=xlFixedWidth, FieldInfo:=Array(Array(0, 9), Array(3, 1))
  End With
End Sub

Second code works great, much obliged squire.
