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

Divide each side by '5'.
-4.8 + 6.2m + m2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '4.8' to each side of the equation.
-4.8 + 6.2m + 4.8 + m2 = 0 + 4.8

Reorder the terms:
-4.8 + 4.8 + 6.2m + m2 = 0 + 4.8

Combine like terms: -4.8 + 4.8 = 0.0
0.0 + 6.2m + m2 = 0 + 4.8
6.2m + m2 = 0 + 4.8

Combine like terms: 0 + 4.8 = 4.8
6.2m + m2 = 4.8

The m term is 6.2m.  Take half its coefficient (3.1).
Square it (9.61) and add it to both sides.

Add '9.61' to each side of the equation.
6.2m + 9.61 + m2 = 4.8 + 9.61

Reorder the terms:
9.61 + 6.2m + m2 = 4.8 + 9.61

Combine like terms: 4.8 + 9.61 = 14.41
9.61 + 6.2m + m2 = 14.41
