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

Divide each side by '6'.
-0.1666666667 + 0.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.1666666667' to each side of the equation.
-0.1666666667 + 0.5x + 0.1666666667 + x2 = 0 + 0.1666666667

Reorder the terms:
-0.1666666667 + 0.1666666667 + 0.5x + x2 = 0 + 0.1666666667

Combine like terms: -0.1666666667 + 0.1666666667 = 0.0000000000
0.0000000000 + 0.5x + x2 = 0 + 0.1666666667
0.5x + x2 = 0 + 0.1666666667

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.1666666667 = 0.1666666667
0.5x + x2 = 0.1666666667

The x term is 0.5x.  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.
0.5x + 0.0625 + x2 = 0.1666666667 + 0.0625
