Step-by-step math

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

1. RGB ÷ 255
```
R = 0.9608
G = 0.9608
B = 0.8627
```

2. max, min, Δ

max = 0.9608
min = 0.8627
Δ = max − min = 0.0980

3. L
```
L = (max + min) / 2 = 0.9118 = 91.18%
```

4. S

S = Δ / (1 − |2L − 1|) = 0.5556 = 55.56%

5. H

max is R → H = 60° × (((G − B) / Δ) mod 6) = 60° × (((0.9608 − 0.8627) / 0.0980) mod 6) = 60.00°

6. HSL
```
hsl(60.00 55.56% 91.18%)
```
