Step-by-step math

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

1. RGB ÷ 255
```
R = 0.8510
G = 0.4667
B = 0.0235
```

2. max, min, Δ

max = 0.8510
min = 0.0235
Δ = max − min = 0.8275

3. L
```
L = (max + min) / 2 = 0.4373 = 43.73%
```

4. S

S = Δ / (1 − |2L − 1|) = 0.9462 = 94.62%

5. H

max is R → H = 60° × (((G − B) / Δ) mod 6) = 60° × (((0.4667 − 0.0235) / 0.8275) mod 6) = 32.13°

6. HSL
```
hsl(32.13 94.62% 43.73%)
```
