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

Divide each side by '8'.
0.375 + -1.5p + p2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.375' to each side of the equation.
0.375 + -1.5p + -0.375 + p2 = 0 + -0.375

Reorder the terms:
0.375 + -0.375 + -1.5p + p2 = 0 + -0.375

Combine like terms: 0.375 + -0.375 = 0.000
0.000 + -1.5p + p2 = 0 + -0.375
-1.5p + p2 = 0 + -0.375

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.375 = -0.375
-1.5p + p2 = -0.375

The p term is -1.5p.  Take half its coefficient (-0.75).
Square it (0.5625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.5625' to each side of the equation.
-1.5p + 0.5625 + p2 = -0.375 + 0.5625

Reorder the terms:
0.5625 + -1.5p + p2 = -0.375 + 0.5625

Combine like terms: -0.375 + 0.5625 = 0.1875
0.5625 + -1.5p + p2 = 0.1875
