Solving for variable 'm'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
12.5 + -10m + m2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-12.5' to each side of the equation.
12.5 + -10m + -12.5 + m2 = 0 + -12.5

Reorder the terms:
12.5 + -12.5 + -10m + m2 = 0 + -12.5

Combine like terms: 12.5 + -12.5 = 0.0
0.0 + -10m + m2 = 0 + -12.5
-10m + m2 = 0 + -12.5

Combine like terms: 0 + -12.5 = -12.5
-10m + m2 = -12.5

The m term is -10m.  Take half its coefficient (-5).
Square it (25) and add it to both sides.

Add '25' to each side of the equation.
-10m + 25 + m2 = -12.5 + 25

Reorder the terms:
25 + -10m + m2 = -12.5 + 25
