m(3 + m) = 26
(3 * m + m * m) = 26
(3m + m2) = 26

Solving
3m + m2 = 26

Solving for variable 'm'.

Reorder the terms:
-26 + 3m + m2 = 26 + -26

Combine like terms: 26 + -26 = 0
-26 + 3m + m2 = 0

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '26' to each side of the equation.
-26 + 3m + 26 + m2 = 0 + 26

Reorder the terms:
-26 + 26 + 3m + m2 = 0 + 26

Combine like terms: -26 + 26 = 0
0 + 3m + m2 = 0 + 26
3m + m2 = 0 + 26

Combine like terms: 0 + 26 = 26
3m + m2 = 26

The m term is 3m.  Take half its coefficient (1.5).
Square it (2.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '2.25' to each side of the equation.
3m + 2.25 + m2 = 26 + 2.25

Reorder the terms:
2.25 + 3m + m2 = 26 + 2.25

Combine like terms: 26 + 2.25 = 28.25
2.25 + 3m + m2 = 28.25

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(m + 1.5)(m + 1.5) = 28.25
