24 + -2m + m2 = 0

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-24' to each side of the equation.
24 + -2m + -24 + m2 = 0 + -24

Reorder the terms:
24 + -24 + -2m + m2 = 0 + -24

Combine like terms: 24 + -24 = 0
0 + -2m + m2 = 0 + -24
-2m + m2 = 0 + -24

Combine like terms: 0 + -24 = -24
-2m + m2 = -24

The m term is -2m.  Take half its coefficient (-1).
Square it (1) and add it to both sides.

Add '1' to each side of the equation.
-2m + 1 + m2 = -24 + 1

Reorder the terms:
1 + -2m + m2 = -24 + 1

Combine like terms: -24 + 1 = -23
1 + -2m + m2 = -23

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(m + -1)(m + -1) = -23

Can't calculate square root of the right side.
