Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-28' to each side of the equation.
28 + -15w + -28 + w2 = 0 + -28

Reorder the terms:
28 + -28 + -15w + w2 = 0 + -28

Combine like terms: 28 + -28 = 0
0 + -15w + w2 = 0 + -28
-15w + w2 = 0 + -28

Combine like terms: 0 + -28 = -28
-15w + w2 = -28

The w term is -15w.  Take half its coefficient (-7.5).
Square it (56.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '56.25' to each side of the equation.
-15w + 56.25 + w2 = -28 + 56.25

Reorder the terms:
56.25 + -15w + w2 = -28 + 56.25

Combine like terms: -28 + 56.25 = 28.25
56.25 + -15w + w2 = 28.25
