0 + w + w2 = 0 + 198
w + w2 = 0 + 198

Combine like terms: 0 + 198 = 198
w + w2 = 198

The w term is w.  Take half its coefficient (0.5).
Square it (0.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.25' to each side of the equation.
w + 0.25 + w2 = 198 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + w + w2 = 198 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 198 + 0.25 = 198.25
0.25 + w + w2 = 198.25

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(w + 0.5)(w + 0.5) = 198.25
