Covert color to rgb value in java

I know a formula to convert a colour to its RGB. Eg.

Color c=new Color(100,100,100);
Int rgb1= c.getRed()*65536+c.getGreen()*256+c.getBlue();

This is how we get single RGB value.

Using java programming

int rgb2=c.getRGB();

when I compare this two rgb1 and rgb2, they show a different value. What's wrong in my first equation. Please kindly solve my problem. Thanks

That because the first way ignores the Alpha value of the color.
You can see that c.getAlpha() returns 255 and you don't use this value, but c.getRGB(); does use it, so it returns FF646464 (in hex base), which is different from 646464.
