Step-by-step math

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

  1. 1. RGB ÷ 255

    R = 0.9529
    G = 0.9098
    B = 1.0000
  2. 2. max, min, Δ

    max = 1.0000
    min = 0.9098
    Δ = max − min = 0.0902
  3. 3. L

    L = (max + min) / 2 = 0.9549 = 95.49%
  4. 4. S

    S = Δ / (1 − |2L − 1|) = 1.0000 = 100.00%
  5. 5. H

    max is B → H = 60° × ((R − G) / Δ + 4) = 60° × ((0.9529 − 0.9098) / 0.0902 + 4) = 268.70°
  6. 6. HSL

    hsl(268.70 100.00% 95.49%)
