Step-by-step math

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

1. 1. RGB ÷ 255

   R = 0.9020
   G = 0.9020
   B = 0.9804

2. 2. max, min, Δ

   max = 0.9804
   min = 0.9020
   Δ = max − min = 0.0784

3. 3. L

   L = (max + min) / 2 = 0.9412 = 94.12%

4. 4. S

   S = Δ / (1 − |2L − 1|) = 0.6667 = 66.67%

5. 5. H

   max is B → H = 60° × ((R − G) / Δ + 4) = 60° × ((0.9020 − 0.9020) / 0.0784 + 4) = 240.00°

6. 6. HSL

   hsl(240.00 66.67% 94.12%)
