Step-by-step math

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

1. sRGB → linear

R: 96/255 = 0.37647 → 0.116971  (((x + 0.055) / 1.055)^2.4)
G: 165/255 = 0.64706 → 0.376262  (((x + 0.055) / 1.055)^2.4)
B: 250/255 = 0.98039 → 0.955973  (((x + 0.055) / 1.055)^2.4)

2. linear sRGB → LMS

l = 0.4122·R + 0.5363·G + 0.0514·B = 0.299200
m = 0.2119·R + 0.6807·G + 0.1074·B = 0.383577
s = 0.0883·R + 0.2817·G + 0.6300·B = 0.718572

3. cube root

l′ = ∛0.299200 = 0.668838
m′ = ∛0.383577 = 0.726581
s′ = ∛0.718572 = 0.895688

4. LMS′ → Oklab

L = 0.2105·l′ + 0.7936·m′ − 0.0041·s′ = 0.71374
a = 1.9780·l′ − 2.4286·m′ + 0.4506·s′ = -0.03802
b = 0.0259·l′ + 0.7828·m′ − 0.8087·s′ = -0.13825

5. Oklab → OKLCH

C = √(a² + b²) = 0.14338
H = atan2(b, a) = 254.624°
L = 0.71374

6. OKLCH

oklch(0.71374 0.14338 254.624)
rounded: oklch(0.714 0.143 254.6)
