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

Divide each side by '4'.
0.625 + 0.5p + p2 = 0.0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.625' to each side of the equation.
0.625 + 0.5p + -0.625 + p2 = 0.0 + -0.625

Reorder the terms:
0.625 + -0.625 + 0.5p + p2 = 0.0 + -0.625

Combine like terms: 0.625 + -0.625 = 0.000
0.000 + 0.5p + p2 = 0.0 + -0.625
0.5p + p2 = 0.0 + -0.625

Combine like terms: 0.0 + -0.625 = -0.625
0.5p + p2 = -0.625

The p term is 0.5p.  Take half its coefficient (0.25).
Square it (0.0625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.0625' to each side of the equation.
0.5p + 0.0625 + p2 = -0.625 + 0.0625

Reorder the terms:
0.0625 + 0.5p + p2 = -0.625 + 0.0625

Combine like terms: -0.625 + 0.0625 = -0.5625
0.0625 + 0.5p + p2 = -0.5625

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(p + 0.25)(p + 0.25) = -0.5625

Can't calculate square root of the right side.
