You Have Not Given values now

Q=CVab
Q1=CV1
Q2=CV2
Q3=CV3

C'= 1/C2 + 1/C3 + 1/C4
and C = 1/C'' + 1/C1 + 1/C5
From This You will find Q = CVab

lets say we have

C1 = C5 = 3μF
C2 = C3 = C4 = 2μF

and Vab = 600 V.

with these values i get

C = 1 μF

i think its correct but i can't find the correct answers using your method for the Q's

so for example for Q1 it would be Q1 = 1*V1 but V1 = ?
