Part's color being different from what I saw in properties

I was working on my game and noticed a really weird bug.
I wanted to make a part’s color change.

I wanted it to be white so I went in a part’s properties and changed it to Institutional White and got the Color3 value of the color(248, 248, 248).
I ran the code and something unexpected happened, the part has turned black. and the color3 value was (8, 8, 8).

I was confused and tried testing some other things and searching around DevForum.
I couldn’t find anything so I’m writing this.

Here’s the code, its really simple and I’m struggling to get the color to work.

script.Parent.Color = Color3.new(248, 248, 248)

Try this:

script.Parent.Color = Color3.fromRGB(248, 248, 248)

Color3.new and Color.fromRGB does the same thing, but used differently.
Example of Color3.new would be Color3.new(1, 1, 1) for white than Color.fromRGB would be Color.fromRGB(255, 255, 255)

Yeah but I think that normal RGB color system is more simple to understand/manipulate.
