You have an image an RGB color mode?

Then forget about using CMYK colors in that. You can use either or. If you want to design in CMYK, change the document color mode to that.

The HEX code is only a different way to write RGB colors.

If you want to use a certain CMYK mixture, just create a new swatch and type in the CMYK.

Here's a video about that HEX thing: https://youtu.be/KsLN7vW9HwE

The conversion of RGB to CMYK is based on color management. Maybe someone gave you that color code. They had set up their color management differently. Or maybe they do not understand color management in the first place.
