series capacicty



Hi all,
 
A while back I asked, that when I would put caps in series, that the voltage
would be a total of the sum of all,
and if the capacitance would be devided by the number of caps, the anser was
no, the capacitance would stay the same, but my meter says different !
 
in other words if i take 3 caps, each 3000 Volts, 3mF
Than that would be a total of 9000Volts with 1mF ???? at least that is waht my
meter says.
 
but some say that it would make 9000 Volts with 3 mF ?
 
so which one is it ??
