Illustrator 2024 : Color not matching after changed

I have a problem with the color palette in illustrator, it's happening to me and my colleagues at work.

For example, at first I selected the color code F6F086 and clicked ok, but immediately after checking the color code again, the parameters were changed from C: 5% to 6% and Y: 60% to 59%.

1.

2.

And there is another problem: when transferring files, the file will have a skewed artboard.

 

Please, someone assist or find a way to solve this problem.

Thank you everyone for reading my article.

If you are working in a CMYK document, specify colors as CMYK.

If you enter Hex or RGB values they get converted to the nearest possible CMYK values.

These CMYK values get converted back to a matching RGB.

Thank you for responding to me. Like the answers above. I think I'll keep watching until the problem continues and the error persists.

1. You're specifying an RGB colour but listing a change in CMYK.

 

2. Can you show an example of a 'skewed' artboard?

We use the same CMYK color system. But even after specifying the object to change color, the error still occurs.
