Orange Hex Codes
In color and design, hex codes are used to specify specific colors depending on the amount of red, green, and blue that they contain.
Hex codes are displayed in the following format: #RRGGBB.
Orange is made by combining red and yellow. And of course, yellow is created by combining green and red. Orange has no blue so, for true orange, there is no blue within the orange color code.
The orange hex code is #FFA500.
Orange RGB Codes
RGB color codes are similar to hex codes because they also specify how much red, green, and blue are contained within a specific color.
RGB color codes are displayed in the following format: RGB(RR,GG,BB).
The Orange RGB code is RGB(255, 165, 0)
Because RGB codes use numbers between 0 and 255 to specify how much red, green, and blue are within that color, you will see that in the orange RBG code red is completely saturated while green is found in a smaller amount.
