Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-8 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-8'.
0.25 + -1.125m + m2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.25' to each side of the equation.
0.25 + -1.125m + -0.25 + m2 = 0 + -0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + -0.25 + -1.125m + m2 = 0 + -0.25

Combine like terms: 0.25 + -0.25 = 0.00
0.00 + -1.125m + m2 = 0 + -0.25
-1.125m + m2 = 0 + -0.25

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.25 = -0.25
-1.125m + m2 = -0.25

The m term is -1.125m.  Take half its coefficient (-0.5625).
