8 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '8'.
-0.375 + -0.875d + d2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.375' to each side of the equation.
-0.375 + -0.875d + 0.375 + d2 = 0 + 0.375

Reorder the terms:
-0.375 + 0.375 + -0.875d + d2 = 0 + 0.375

Combine like terms: -0.375 + 0.375 = 0.000
0.000 + -0.875d + d2 = 0 + 0.375
-0.875d + d2 = 0 + 0.375

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.375 = 0.375
-0.875d + d2 = 0.375

The d term is -0.875d.  Take half its coefficient (-0.4375).
Square it (0.19140625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.19140625' to each side of the equation.
-0.875d + 0.19140625 + d2 = 0.375 + 0.19140625

Reorder the terms:
0.19140625 + -0.875d + d2 = 0.375 + 0.19140625

Combine like terms: 0.375 + 0.19140625 = 0.56640625
0.19140625 + -0.875d + d2 = 0.56640625
