Step-by-step math

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

1. RGB ÷ 255
```
R = 0.1804
G = 0.0627
B = 0.3961
```

2. max, min, Δ

max = 0.3961
min = 0.0627
Δ = max − min = 0.3333

3. L
```
L = (max + min) / 2 = 0.2294 = 22.94%
```

4. S

S = Δ / (1 − |2L − 1|) = 0.7265 = 72.65%

5. H

max is B → H = 60° × ((R − G) / Δ + 4) = 60° × ((0.1804 − 0.0627) / 0.3333 + 4) = 261.18°

6. HSL
```
hsl(261.18 72.65% 22.94%)
```
