Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1' to each side of the equation.
-1 + 3m + 1 + m2 = 0 + 1

Reorder the terms:
-1 + 1 + 3m + m2 = 0 + 1

Combine like terms: -1 + 1 = 0
0 + 3m + m2 = 0 + 1
3m + m2 = 0 + 1

Combine like terms: 0 + 1 = 1
3m + m2 = 1

The m term is 3m.  Take half its coefficient (1.5).
Square it (2.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '2.25' to each side of the equation.
3m + 2.25 + m2 = 1 + 2.25

Reorder the terms:
2.25 + 3m + m2 = 1 + 2.25

Combine like terms: 1 + 2.25 = 3.25
2.25 + 3m + m2 = 3.25

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(m + 1.5)(m + 1.5) = 3.25

Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.802775638

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(m + 1.5) equal to 1.802775638 and -1.802775638.

Subproblem 1

m + 1.5 = 1.802775638 Simplifying m + 1.5 = 1.802775638 Reorder the terms: 1.5 + m = 1.802775638 Solving 1.5 + m = 1.802775638 Solving for variable 'm'. Move all terms containing m to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-1.5' to each side of the equation. 1.5 + -1.5 + m = 1.802775638 + -1.5 Combine like terms: 1.5 + -1.5 = 0.0 0.0 + m = 1.802775638 + -1.5 m = 1.802775638 + -1.5 Combine like terms: 1.802775638 + -1.5 = 0.302775638 m = 0.302775638 Simplifying m = 0.302775638

Subproblem 2

m + 1.5 = -1.802775638 Simplifying m + 1.5 = -1.802775638 Reorder the terms: 1.5 + m = -1.802775638 Solving 1.5 + m = -1.802775638 Solving for variable 'm'. Move all terms containing m to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-1.5' to each side of the equation. 1.5 + -1.5 + m = -1.802775638 + -1.5 Combine like terms: 1.5 + -1.5 = 0.0 0.0 + m = -1.802775638 + -1.5 m = -1.802775638 + -1.5 Combine like terms: -1.802775638 + -1.5 = -3.302775638 m = -3.302775638 Simplifying m = -3.302775638
