  1. resize the data partition from 300gb to 250gb.

  2. live the ubunt os but resize the ubuntu partition from 130gb to 50gb.

  3. install win7 64 bit on a new partition 130gb (50gb from data + 80gb from ubuntu).

  4. enable dual boot - ubuntu and win7.

First you need an Ubuntu Live CD or USB drive and make a live boot.
Then start GParted app.

You can easily make changes in the partition for Ubuntu and other data using this app (Answer for Qn.1 & Qn.2). For any clarifications , try the following link:
http://www.howtogeek.com/114503/how-to-resize-your-ubuntu-partitions/.

You may easily install windows on the partition you prefer (Qn.3).

After installation, if you don't get the GRUB (Boot menu) try the following link :
How can I repair grub? (How to get Ubuntu back after installing Windows?) (Qn.4).
