SInce it looks like you have no extra space left, you need to remove that
large primary partition and make 2 out of it, one for / and one for /usr
(?)
If you want to use, and you most certainly do, swap space, you need to
make one for it as well.
So, on the bottom of a screen there are options through which you can move
with cursor keys.
TO delete a partition: highlight primary partition with UP/DOWN keys, then
LEFT/RIGHT key to delete. It will remove the partition, and give you free
space.
Then highlight that free space line and choose NEW.
SPecify the size, set the type, bootable/not, etc.
Then move on to another partition.
Make sure you set SWap space of a type Logical with FS type LINUX SWAP,
#82.
After you are done with setting up the table, go ahead and WRITE.
It will partition the disk for you.
