Also, what color do you mix with Green to get blue?
So mixing a yellow and a red, for example, will make an orange. Mixing a green and a purple will make a blue.
Similarly, does red and green make blue? So to get blue, we need to subtract red and green. The two pigments/dyes/inks we need to make blue need to subtract red and green, so if we mix the cyan and magenta inks together, the cyan will subtract red, and the magenta will subtract green, leaving only blue.
Subsequently, one may also ask, why does yellow and green make blue?
Blue + Yellow pigment yields the color greenYellow paint reflects most light at long wavelengths and absorbs light at short wavelengths. Because blue paint and yellow paint both reflect middle (green appearing) wavelengths when blue and yellow paint are mixed together, the mixture appears green.
