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

Divide each side by '5'.
-3.6 + n + n2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '3.6' to each side of the equation.
-3.6 + n + 3.6 + n2 = 0 + 3.6

Reorder the terms:
-3.6 + 3.6 + n + n2 = 0 + 3.6

Combine like terms: -3.6 + 3.6 = 0.0
0.0 + n + n2 = 0 + 3.6
n + n2 = 0 + 3.6

Combine like terms: 0 + 3.6 = 3.6
n + n2 = 3.6

The n term is n.  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 + n2 = 3.6 + 0.25

Combine like terms:  + 0.25 = 1.25
1.25 + n2 = 3.6 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 3.6 + 0.25 = 3.85
1.25 + n2 = 3.85
