5 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '5'.
0.4 + 2.4n + n2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.4' to each side of the equation.
0.4 + 2.4n + -0.4 + n2 = 0 + -0.4

Reorder the terms:
0.4 + -0.4 + 2.4n + n2 = 0 + -0.4

Combine like terms: 0.4 + -0.4 = 0.0
0.0 + 2.4n + n2 = 0 + -0.4
2.4n + n2 = 0 + -0.4

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.4 = -0.4
2.4n + n2 = -0.4

The n term is 2.4n.  Take half its coefficient (1.2).
Square it (1.44) and add it to both sides.

Add '1.44' to each side of the equation.
2.4n + 1.44 + n2 = -0.4 + 1.44
