I have 500 gb HDD and i made 4 partition of 115 gb. But i Need 3 partition only. How can i delete one partition and allocate the free space to the other partition equally.

use windows' built in partition manager for deleting required partition and extend only one partition. Or you can use 3rd party HDD management tool like Minitool Partition Wizard for doing it.

i dont encourage to use windows own disk management tool. instead use easeus partition manager/aomei.

Easeus should do it.

However you will have to do the calculations manually.

Delete the last partition first. Extend the 3rd partition to the calculated final size. Then move it to the end of disk.

Now extend the second partition to the calculated final size. Move it adjacent to the 3rd partition.

Expand the first partition.

Which OS do you use?

REMINDER :
Please note that this a MAJOR operation and this can go wrong for a variety of reasons. Do not attempt this without a total backup which has been verified to be correct.

Any power situation will be disastrous. Sometimes if the UPS is not fully charged, it may not provide the seamless switchover in case of power loss. Further partition moving will take some time more so if it has significant data in it.
Better be safe than sorry ;-)
