Primary colours are:-
red, blue and yellow!.
Primary colours are the colours which cannot be mixed by mixing any other colour!.

Secondary colours are:-
Yellow + Red = Orange
Yellow + Blue = Green
Red + Blue = Purple
These are the colours that are made from mixing two primary colours!.

When mixing secondary colours always start with the lightest colour frist, so yellow before red!. That way you need less of the light or dark colour to make the colour you need!.

red, yellow and blue are the three primary colors
mix red and blue and you can get various shades of purple
yellow and red makes orange
blue and yellow make green
you add more color of what ever direction you want the color to go (example) more red makes a redder shade of purple and so on!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Red (magenta), Blue (cyan) and yellow!.

Any colours formed by mixing 2 of those colours are secondary colours and anything formed by mixing all 3 are tertiary colours!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

They are red, yellow and blue! You mix 2 colours to get a new colour and then 2 of the new colours to get more eg yellow + blue= green and red + blue= purpleWww@QuestionHome@Com

red, blue and yellow, because they are pure colors and cannot be made by mixing two or more of any other color!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
