Step-by-step math

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

1. input
```
H = 248.46°, S = 39.00%, L = 39.22%
```
2. C
```
C = (1 − |2L − 1|) × S = 0.30592
```

3. X

X = C × (1 − |(H / 60°) mod 2 − 1|) = 0.04313   (H / 60° = 4.1410, sector 4)

4. m
```
m = L − C / 2 = 0.23924
```

5. (R′, G′, B′) + m

(R′, G′, B′) = (0.04313, 0.00000, 0.30592)
R = round((0.04313 + 0.23924) × 255) = 72
G = round((0.00000 + 0.23924) × 255) = 61
B = round((0.30592 + 0.23924) × 255) = 139

6. RGB → HEX
```
#483D8B
```
