    For series capacitors:

    1/c = 1/c2 + 1/c3

    or, Cseries = c2 * c3 / (c2 + c3) = 2*3 / (2+3) = 1.2 micro farad

    This net Cseries is now in parallel with c1, so for capacitors in parallel:

    Ctotal = Cseries + c1 = 1 + 1.2 = 2.2 microfarad

    Now, we know for a capacitor:

    q = V * C

    So, charge flowing = 110 * 2.2 = 220 micro columb
