    Take the jpg and open in an image editing program such as paintshop pro, photoshop, ulead photo impact. Most of those programs have an eyedropper from which you can obtain the red, green, blue components.

    When I do graphic works I always take help of color picker for identifing hex code. The advantage of using color picker is you can sample any open window colors hex codes (including html browser windows). This is not possible with eye droper tool. Eye droper only can catch the color codes of open files of that paricular software.
    If you wish to have color picker you may download at: http://www.chunting.com/download.html
    It is free and tiny size.

    Also if you use firefox you can try colorzilla, it's a really useful firefox extension.

    I second the vote for colorzilla. I use it daily.
