Questions about #7cb13a

What is #7cb13a in RGB, HSL and CMYK?
In RGB, #7cb13a is rgb(124, 177, 58), in HSL hsl(87, 51%, 46%) and in CMYK 30%, 0%, 67%, 31%.
What text color works best on #7cb13a?
Black text is the clear winner, reaching about 8.2:1 contrast, well above the 4.5:1 needed for WCAG AA body text. White text falls short, so keep it off small type.
Is #7cb13a a warm or cool green?
It reads warm. The yellow undertone pulls it toward sunlit foliage instead of blue-green shades, which is why it feels energetic rather than calm.
What colors pair well with #7cb13a?
It looks sharpest against deep, dark tones. Pair it with navy or charcoal for buttons and badges, since those darks rein in its intensity. Skip pale yellows, which wash it out.
Is #7cb13a readable on white or black?
#7cb13a has a 2.55:1 contrast ratio on white and 8.20:1 on black. WCAG asks for 4.5:1 for body text and 3:1 for large text, so on white it is too faint for text and on black it works for body text. Try other pairs in the contrast checker.
