/var is full and need 2 be resized

i have the following disk structure on my system
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda6 1012M 318M 643M 34% /
/dev/sdb1 68G 29G 36G 45% /backup
/dev/sdc1 68G 25G 40G 39% /home2
/dev/sda1 99M 46M 48M 50% /boot
/dev/sda5 47G 5.7G 39G 13% /home
none 1004M 0 1004M 0% /dev/shm
/dev/sda7 1012M 33M 928M 4% /tmp
/dev/sda2 9.9G 4.2G 5.2G 45% /usr
/dev/sda3 6.9G 5.1G 1.5G 78% /var

and i am putting mysql on /var/lib/mysql

the mysql size is approximately 5 giga and it will be 7 giga in a week , because i plan to get a new big database to my server.

any idea for how to increase the /var partition , or even how to move /var on another bigger partition (/dev/sdb1) for example.

a step by step help will be appreciated /var is full and need 2 be resized
