When you need RGB to HEX

Questions
How do I convert RGB to HEX by hand?
Divide each value by 16: the whole number is the first digit and the remainder the second, with 10 to 15 written A to F. 47 is 2 × 16 + 15, so 2F.
Is the conversion exact?
Yes. HEX and RGB are the same numbers in different bases, so nothing is lost either way.
