color is off for my gui script?

local last = nil
local function turnOrange(new)
	if last ~= nil then
		if new.Name ~= last.Name then
			new.TextColor3 = Color3.new(227, 125, 0)
			last.TextColor3 = Color3.new(0, 31, 168)
		end
	else new.TextColor3 = Color3.new(0, 31, 168)
	end
	last = new
end 

for i, v in pairs(script.Parent.Parent:GetChildren()) do
	if v:IsA("TextButton") and v.Name ~= "Select" then
		v.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
			turnOrange(v) 
		end)
	end
end

soo the script, is completely fine but the color change is off, i want it to chnage orange but it changes yellow, i checked the numbers for orange and i have it correct but it doesnt work also the normal color of the text is dark blue but after i click on it and click another button it turns like teal blue, are there any reasons why this is happening

You basically just need to divide each number by 255 or make a function that does it for you.

local last = nil

local function convert_rgb(color)
	local rgb = {}
	-- Table to return vals
	for i in string.gmatch(tostring(color), "%d+") do 
		-- Find the pattern, in this case it's the numbers before each comma. 
		rgb[#rgb+1] = i/255
		-- Store the value divided by 255
	end
	return Color3.new(unpack(rgb))
	-- return the divided rgb vals.
end

local function turnOrange(new)
    if last ~= nil then
        if new.Name ~= last.Name then
            new.TextColor3 = convert_rgb(Color3.new(227, 125, 0))
            last.TextColor3 = convert_rgb(Color3.new(0, 31, 168))
        end
    else 
		new.TextColor3 = convert_rgb(Color3.new(0, 31, 168))
    end
    last = new
end 

for i, v in pairs(script.Parent.Parent:GetChildren()) do
    if v:IsA("TextButton") and v.Name ~= "Select" then
        v.MouseButton1Click:connect(function()
            turnOrange(v) 
        end)
    end
end
