You can only extend the partition if there is un-allocated disk to its side.

In your case dev/sda8 is in between your file system and un-allocated space. So if want to extend the file system first move the partition dev/sda8 to right and try extending the file system.

Be careful when you move the partition it may result in data lost.

Tell me if it works
