Solving for variable 'c'.

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

Divide each side by '3'.
-0.3333333333 + c + c2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.3333333333' to each side of the equation.
-0.3333333333 + c + 0.3333333333 + c2 = 0 + 0.3333333333

Reorder the terms:
-0.3333333333 + 0.3333333333 + c + c2 = 0 + 0.3333333333

Combine like terms: -0.3333333333 + 0.3333333333 = 0.0000000000
0.0000000000 + c + c2 = 0 + 0.3333333333
c + c2 = 0 + 0.3333333333

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.3333333333 = 0.3333333333
c + c2 = 0.3333333333

The c term is c.  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 + c2 = 0.3333333333 + 0.25

Combine like terms:  + 0.25 = 1.25
1.25 + c2 = 0.3333333333 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 0.3333333333 + 0.25 = 0.5833333333
1.25 + c2 = 0.5833333333
