You can't, unless you use third-party software.
BootITNG has a fully-functional 30 day trial that will do what you want.

Don't install it though, just create the disk for partition work, or click
on maintainence when booting from the disk.

You should back up the drive also, (make an image), just in case the resize
fails for some reason.

I have used the program successfully for these functions.

To use BING without installing, you Cancel the installation. The Maintenance
option only appears if you install BING.

If you're a "Newb" as your name states, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A FULL BACKUP
before attempting the combine operation.
