Description from the creator

Learn Linux in 5 Days ►► bit.ly/5DaysLinuxCourse

In this video I'll show you how to take space from one partition or operating system and move it into another partition. Backup your important files before you attempt this!

Boot into a Live CD (Ubuntu etc)

sudo gparted to open the app

Right click ► Resize on partition to take from. Decrease the size as desired up to a max of your current free space.

Right click ► Resize on extended partition holding your 2nd operating system to make the free space accessible by the 2nd OS. Increase the size as desired (If any)

Right click ► Resize on your 2nd operating system and increase the size with the free space on your extended partition. Give it a lot of time to finish. Probably best for an overnighter.
