[CSS] how do I calculate the subtraction of two color?

tubbadu@lemmy.kde.social to Programming@beehaw.org – 11 points –

Hello! I'm trying to understand how a color has been obtained by merging two other colors, for instance:

--color1: #02c390;
--color2: #31363B;

--result: #24544C;

I would like to create --result by merging the two other colors, but I don't know the percentage. I tried using color-mix but I didn't get any close results. how can I get the percentage of the two colors needed to obtain the result?

thanks in advance!

The only way to do this is by dividing this into R, G, B and then do the math on these. See Here

Doesn't look like a linear operation in RGB color space to me just eyeing the hex values. Might be an operation in HSL or CMYK spaces
