None of the volumes you want to be resized can be done while they are mounted. You will have to unmount them to resize them. This should be done through the Oracle config page and not the OS. https://docs.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/Content/Block/Tasks/resizingavolume.htm

gparted has a command line interface.

If you don't already have it installed, run the following:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install gparted

As far as how to use all of the features of gparted from the command line, review the manual:

man gparted

Note: You can not resize any partitions that are currently mounted. So you will not be able to resize the partition that contains the root file system while the system is running.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
