At Mass m1.
m1g-T=m1a - - - >1.
At Mass m2
T-m2g=m2a.
In this
T= m2a+m2g sub in eq1, and Get a.
m1g-T=m1a - - - >1.
At Mass m2
T-m2g=m2a.
In this
T= m2a+m2g sub in eq1, and Get a.

ACCORDING TO NEWTON'S SECOND LAW OF MOTION.
(M1 + M2) A = M1G - M2G.
A = (M1G-M2G)/(M1 +M2).
(M1 + M2) A = M1G - M2G.
A = (M1G-M2G)/(M1 +M2).

Consider both the masses as FBD separately.
Then equating tensions from both the cases.
