Step-by-step math

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

1. RGB ÷ 255
```
R = 0.9098
G = 0.9098
B = 0.8902
```

2. max, min, Δ

max = 0.9098
min = 0.8902
Δ = max − min = 0.0196

3. L
```
L = (max + min) / 2 = 0.9000 = 90.00%
```

4. S

S = Δ / (1 − |2L − 1|) = 0.0980 = 9.80%

5. H

max is R → H = 60° × (((G − B) / Δ) mod 6) = 60° × (((0.9098 − 0.8902) / 0.0196) mod 6) = 60.00°

6. HSL
```
hsl(60.00 9.80% 90.00%)
```
