if two particles of masses M1 and M2 move with velocities V1 and V2 towards each other on a smooth horizontal plane what is the velocity of their centre of mass?

Let two bodies of masses m_1 and m_2 lies any instant x_1 and x_2 respectively in smooth horizontal plane. so, position of centre of mass system of bodies at time t , X=\frac{m_1x_1+m_2x_2}{m_1+m_2}

as you know,
velocity is the rate of change of displacement or location of body. so, differentiate X with respect to time to get velocity of their centre of mass.

e.g., \vec{v}=\frac{dX}{dt}=\frac{m_1\frac{dx_1}{dt}+m_2\frac{dx_2}{dt}}{m_1+m_2}

\vec{v}=\frac{m_1\vec{v_1}+m_2\vec{v_2}}{m_1+m_2}
