RGB-HEX

Convert RGB and HEX Colors to different formats

HEX to RGB Converter

Welcome to our HEX to RGB converter! This convenient tool enables you to effortlessly convert hexadecimal (HEX) color values to their corresponding RGB values. Whether you’re a designer, developer, or simply interested in decoding color codes, this converter is designed to make the process seamless for you.

How to Manually Convert HEX to RGB?

Here’s a manual calculation of how the process goes behind our tool:

Extract HEX Digits

Take the HEX color code and separate it into its respective components – the first two characters represent the red component, the next two represent green, and the last two represent blue.

Convert HEX to Decimal

Convert the HEX digits to decimals using the following rules:

HexadecimalDecimal
00
11
22
33
44
55
66
77
88
99
A10
B11
C12
D13
E14
F15
  • If the digit is a number (0-9), its decimal equivalent is the same.
  • If the digit is a letter (A-F), its decimal equivalent is 10 for A, 11 for B, and so on, up to 15 for F.

Calculate RGB Components

Red Component: Convert the first two HEX characters to decimal to get the red component.
Green Component: Convert the next two HEX characters to decimal to get the green component.
Blue Component: Convert the last two HEX characters to decimal to get the blue component.

For Example:

Extracting Digits for HEX code: #FF6347

  • Red: FF
  • Green: 63
  • Blue: 47

For each pair of hexadecimal digits:

If the digit is a number (0-9), its decimal equivalent is the same.
If the digit is a letter (A-F), its decimal equivalent is 10 for A, 11 for B, and so on, up to 15 for F.

  • Red (FF):
    F in hexadecimal is equivalent to 15 in decimal. So, FF is (15 * 16) + 15 = 255 in decimal.
  • Green (63):
    6 * 16 + 3 = 99 in decimal.
  • Blue (47):
    4 * 16 + 7 = 71 in decimal.

Combine RGB Components

Once you have the decimal values for each component, you’ve obtained the RGB color values.

Continuing Example:

RGB color values: RGB(255, 99, 71)

So, the RGB equivalent of the HEX color code #FF6347 is RGB(255, 99, 71).

Practical Calculation Example of HEX to RGB Conversion

Here are some examples of color code breakdown:

HEX Color: #000000

Red component: 00hex = 0dec
Green component: 00hex = 0dec
Blue component: 00hex = 0dec

RGB Color: R=0, G=0, B=0 with a Color Representation: Black (absence of color)

HEX Color: #FFFFFF

Red component: FFhex = 255dec
Green component: FFhex = 255dec
Blue component: FFhex = 255dec

RGB Color: R=255, G=255, B=255 with a Color Representation: White (presence of all colors)

HEX Color: #800080

Red component: 80hex= 128dec
Green component: 00hex= 0dec
Blue component: 80hex= 128dec

RGB Color: R=128, G=0, B=128 with Color Representation: Purple

HEX Color: #FFFF00

Red component: FFhex= 255dec
Green component: FFhex= 255dec
Blue component: 00hex= 0dec

RGB Color: R=255, G=255, B=0 with Color Representation: Yellow

HEX color code #FF8000

Red component: FFhex= 255dec
Green component: 80hex= 128dec
Blue component: 00hex= 0dec

RGB Color: R=255, G=128, B=0 with Color Representation: Bright shade of orange, reminiscent of ripe oranges or autumn leaves, conveying warmth, energy, and vitality.
