Sure, I'd be happy to help you find the first five partial sums of the series and determine its convergence. However, I need more information about the series itself to proceed. Specifically, could you please provide:

1. **The general term of the series** or
2. **The first few terms of the series**

With this information, I can accurately compute the partial sums and analyze the convergence behavior of the series.

**For example:**

If the series is defined as:
$$ \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{2^n} $$

Then:
- $$ S_1 = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5 $$
- $$ S_2 = \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{4} = 0.75 $$
- $$ S_3 = \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{8} = 0.875 $$
- $$ S_4 = \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{8} + \frac{1}{16} = 0.9375 $$
- $$ S_5 = \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{8} + \frac{1}{16} + \frac{1}{32} = 0.9688 $$

In this example, the partial sums approach 1, indicating that the series is **convergent** with an approximate sum of **1.0000**.

**Please provide the series details, and I'll assist you further!**
To determine if the series is convergent or divergent, I need the general term or the first few terms of the series. Once provided, I can calculate the first five partial sums and analyze the behavior of the series to find its approximate sum if it converges.
