Step-by-step math

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

1. RGB ÷ 255
```
R = 0.6314
G = 0.3843
B = 0.0275
```

2. max, min, Δ

max = 0.6314
min = 0.0275
Δ = max − min = 0.6039

3. L
```
L = (max + min) / 2 = 0.3294 = 32.94%
```

4. S

S = Δ / (1 − |2L − 1|) = 0.9167 = 91.67%

5. H

max is R → H = 60° × (((G − B) / Δ) mod 6) = 60° × (((0.3843 − 0.0275) / 0.6039) mod 6) = 35.45°

6. HSL
```
hsl(35.45 91.67% 32.94%)
```
