basic ohm's law comes into play here.
"the voltage across any two points in an electric circuit is directly proportional to the current flowing between the two points, providing the temperature is constant".
resistors in series, values add up, voltage is shared across the resistances, current is the same in each.
resistors in parallel, the resistance drops (when measured it will always be smaller than the lowest value resistor), voltage on each is the same and current is shared.

Very simple,Resistor restrict the current flow.
Think of a water pipeline connected to a tank. if two pipe lines are connected in parallel double of the water can flow.
opposite is the case in series connection.

2 resistors in series = resistance doubles & voltage capacity stays the same as a single resister.
2 resistors in parallel = voltage capacity doubles & resistance stays the same as a single resister.

resistors in series add up......
in parallel the work acc to formula 1/R = 1/r1 + 1/r2 + ... where r1, r2,...are the resistances in parallel and R is the resultant resistance
