Solving for variable 'c'.

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

Divide each side by '4'.
-300 + 0.25c + c2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '300' to each side of the equation.
-300 + 0.25c + 300 + c2 = 0 + 300

Reorder the terms:
-300 + 300 + 0.25c + c2 = 0 + 300

Combine like terms: -300 + 300 = 0
0 + 0.25c + c2 = 0 + 300
0.25c + c2 = 0 + 300

Combine like terms: 0 + 300 = 300
0.25c + c2 = 300

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.
0.25c + 0.25 + c2 = 300 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + 0.25c + c2 = 300 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 300 + 0.25 = 300.25
0.25 + 0.25c + c2 = 300.25

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(c + 0.5)(c + 0.5) = 300.25

Calculate the square root of the right side: 17.327723451
