Step-by-step math

Every number below is computed from the input, nothing is looked up.

1. RGB ÷ 255
```
R = 0.1451
G = 0.3882
B = 0.9216
```

2. max, min, Δ

max = 0.9216
min = 0.1451
Δ = max − min = 0.7765

3. L
```
L = (max + min) / 2 = 0.5333 = 53.33%
```

4. S

S = Δ / (1 − |2L − 1|) = 0.8319 = 83.19%

5. H

max is B → H = 60° × ((R − G) / Δ + 4) = 60° × ((0.1451 − 0.3882) / 0.7765 + 4) = 221.21°

6. HSL
```
hsl(221.21 83.19% 53.33%)
```
