QUESTION #1 is SWAP the ext4 part. shown above with mount point = /
or is it the other ext4 partition?
QUESTION #2 is there a tool that comes with Windows or Ubuntu that
can reduce size of Ubuntu and swap and add to Windows without
removing and replacing Ubuntu and swap partitions?

Check /etc/fstab to find the partition that is used as swap.
Current version can also use a swap file, so no separate partition is
needed.

Check /etc/fstab to find the partition that is used as swap.I should have said: when GPARTED shows mount point as '/' does that
Current version can also use a swap file, so no separate partition
is needed.
mean that partition is the swap?
This PC came with Win10 on it and I added Ubuntu, including the
so-called swap partition to be used w/Ubuntu. The disk is NVME type
and uses modern GPT arrangement. I want to reduce the space used by
the Ubuntu partition and swap partition and add to Windows.
GPARTED shows the 3 big parts are physically sequential as follows:
p3 96GB: ntfs, 58 used 38 unused, no mount point shown
p6 43GB: ext4, 28 used 15 unused, mount point = /
p5 98GB: ext4, 30 used 68 unused, no mount point shown
FDISK -l output is as follows:
Device Start End Sectors Size Type /dev/nvme0n1p1 2048 534527 532480 260M EFI System <=== FAT for EFI (boot, Ubuntu folder, Windows folder)
