When parallelling caps with the same working voltage, the resulting working voltage stays the same. The capacitance is the sum of the two.
When serializing the caps with the same working voltage, the resulting working voltage doubles. The capacitance is then calculated ftom the formula C=(C1*C2)/(C1+C2) which in case of equal values results in half the capacitance of each.
