1/Ctotal=1/C1+1/C2,
Its the inverse of adding resistors in series, that's how i remember it.

That gives you the capacitance :)

Finding the voltage is a different matter...do you want the voltage once they are charged or at a given time while they are charging?

At any rate, this may help: http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/electric/capchg.html

Find first of all equivalent capacitance and after it assuming the equivalent capacitance as a capacitance of one capacitor.... now apply the basic formula.

sorry i was away, i would like the voltage when charged
