I'm assuming that when you say series, the springs are attached to each other, forming a long chain.
First off, for this type of question, you need to remember the fact that the force from a spring comes from how long it is stretched multiplied by its constant, k1 or k2. In series, both of these springs would not stretch equally, as they have different spring constants. So, we can come up with 2 equations f1= k1*x1-(1) and f2=k2*x2-(2).
Assuming a force F is applied on this system, the springs will stretch a combined total distance of X.
