why is m1 . v1 + m2 . v2
therefore m1/m2=-v2/v1
Please show steps

m1*v1=m2*v2
Divide both sides by v1
m1=m2v2/v1
Divide both sides again by m2
and you get
m1/m2=v2/v1

I think it should be:-
m1 v1 = m2 v2 (conservation of momentum)
(m1 v1) / (m2) = v2
(m1 / m2) = (v2 / v1)
m1 / m2 = v2 / v1

m1*v1 + m2*v2 = 0
m1*v1 = - m2*v2 |:m2
m1*v1/m2 = - v2 | : v1
m1/m2 = -v2/v1 q.e.d.
