Solving for variable 'u'.

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

Divide each side by '6'.
3 + 0.1666666667u + u2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-3' to each side of the equation.
3 + 0.1666666667u + -3 + u2 = 0 + -3

Reorder the terms:
3 + -3 + 0.1666666667u + u2 = 0 + -3

Combine like terms: 3 + -3 = 0
0 + 0.1666666667u + u2 = 0 + -3
0.1666666667u + u2 = 0 + -3

Combine like terms: 0 + -3 = -3
0.1666666667u + u2 = -3

The u term is u.  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.
0.1666666667u + 0.25 + u2 = -3 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + 0.1666666667u + u2 = -3 + 0.25
