How to expand a section at the expense of another?

Question

linux

There is a hard disk structure like this:


How can /dev/sda5 be extended with either /dev/sda6 or /dev/sda2? I don't understand much of this.

Answer 1

Well, first you reduce /dev/sda2, then you move all the partitions so that the free space is next to the one you want to expand, and expand it.
