H2S4O6 is known as Tetrathionic acid and has unsymmetrical Sulphur atoms, therefore conventional method won’t work. Hence, analysis of structure is essential.
Since, electronegativity of Oxygen is more than that of Sulphur, therefore when bond would break, Oxygen will have -1 and Sulphur +1.

Hope it helps.
