Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-3' to each side of the equation.
3 + 12n + -3 + n2 = 0 + -3

Reorder the terms:
3 + -3 + 12n + n2 = 0 + -3

Combine like terms: 3 + -3 = 0
0 + 12n + n2 = 0 + -3
12n + n2 = 0 + -3

Combine like terms: 0 + -3 = -3
12n + n2 = -3

The n term is 12n.  Take half its coefficient (6).
Square it (36) and add it to both sides.

Add '36' to each side of the equation.
12n + 36 + n2 = -3 + 36

Reorder the terms:
36 + 12n + n2 = -3 + 36

Combine like terms: -3 + 36 = 33
36 + 12n + n2 = 33

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(n + 6)(n + 6) = 33

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(n + 6) equal to 5.744562647 and -5.744562647.

Subproblem 1
n + 6 = 5.744562647

Simplifying
n + 6 = 5.744562647

Reorder the terms:
6 + n = 5.744562647

Solving
6 + n = 5.744562647

Solving for variable 'n'.

Move all terms containing n to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-6' to each side of the equation.
6 + -6 + n = 5.744562647 + -6

Combine like terms: 6 + -6 = 0
0 + n = 5.744562647 + -6
n = 5.744562647 + -6

Combine like terms: 5.744562647 + -6 = -0.255437353
n = -0.255437353

Simplifying
n = -0.255437353

Subproblem 2
n + 6 = -5.744562647

Simplifying
n + 6 = -5.744562647

Reorder the terms:
6 + n = -5.744562647

Solving
6 + n = -5.744562647

Solving for variable 'n'.

Move all terms containing n to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-6' to each side of the equation.
6 + -6 + n = -5.744562647 + -6

Combine like terms: 6 + -6 = 0
0 + n = -5.744562647 + -6
n = -5.744562647 + -6

Combine like terms: -5.744562647 + -6 = -11.744562647
n = -11.744562647

Simplifying
n = -11.744562647

Solution
