Blue, red, and yellow are the primary colors. Purple, green, orange are secondary colors.

Black is supposedly the absense of colors, and white is the presence of all colors.

Mr. Proto. You are getting your arts and your sciences mixed up.

RGB = Black absense of color, white presense of color

RYB = Black presense of color, white absense of color

My boyfriends brother and I read through a section of his psychology book about this... I don't remember what it said but it was really interesting. ^_^

Cyan, Magenta and Yellow if it's inks. Red/Yellow/Blue is nonsense really, and Red = Yellow + Magenta Printers will use black as well though, because the C/M/Y when mixed together give a muddy colour instead of black like it would with pure pigments. That's for subtractive colour mixing anyway.

I prefer Red/Green/Blue though, since that's what I'm more used to using and mixing when picking colours on the computer screen, as computer screens use the primary colours of light

In both those cases though, you can't make every colour in existance, which is why there's also other methods for describing colour space, like L*a*b*.

I like eestlinc's response too though.

I thought red+blue+yellow= brown. Oh wait... maybe that's for watercolors.
