Frequently Asked Questions About Hex to RGB Converter
How do I convert a hex color to RGB?
Each pair of hex digits represents one color channel: the first two are red, the middle two are green, the last two are blue. Convert each pair from base-16 to a 0-255 number. For example, #3B82F6 is rgb(59, 130, 246). This tool does it instantly.
What is the difference between 3-digit and 6-digit hex?
A 3-digit hex like #abc is shorthand where each digit is doubled, expanding to #aabbcc. Both describe the same color. This converter accepts either format.
Does this support alpha or transparency?
This tool converts the standard RGB color channels. For transparency, append an alpha value in your CSS using rgba() or an 8-digit hex; the core RGB values from this tool stay the same.
