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

Divide each side by '2'.
-3.5 + n + n2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '3.5' to each side of the equation.
-3.5 + n + 3.5 + n2 = 0 + 3.5

Reorder the terms:
-3.5 + 3.5 + n + n2 = 0 + 3.5

Combine like terms: -3.5 + 3.5 = 0.0
0.0 + n + n2 = 0 + 3.5
n + n2 = 0 + 3.5

Combine like terms: 0 + 3.5 = 3.5
n + n2 = 3.5

The n term is n.  Take half its coefficient (0.5).
Square it (0.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.25' to each side of the equation.
 + 0.25 + n2 = 3.5 + 0.25

Combine like terms:  + 0.25 = 1.25
1.25 + n2 = 3.5 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 3.5 + 0.25 = 3.75
1.25 + n2 = 3.75

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(n + 0.5)(n + 0.5) = 3.75
