Step-by-step math

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

1. RGB ÷ 255
```
R = 0.8863
G = 0.9098
B = 0.9412
```

2. max, min, Δ

max = 0.9412
min = 0.8863
Δ = max − min = 0.0549

3. L
```
L = (max + min) / 2 = 0.9137 = 91.37%
```

4. S

S = Δ / (1 − |2L − 1|) = 0.3182 = 31.82%

5. H

max is B → H = 60° × ((R − G) / Δ + 4) = 60° × ((0.8863 − 0.9098) / 0.0549 + 4) = 214.29°

6. HSL
```
hsl(214.29 31.82% 91.37%)
```
