Which colors are classified as secondary colors?

Red, Yellow, and Blue
Pink, Purple, and Green
Orange, Green, and Violet
Black, White, and Gray

The correct answer is: Orange, Green, and Violet

Secondary colors are created by mixing equal parts of two primary colors. In the traditional color wheel, the primary colors are red, blue, and yellow. When you mix these primary colors, you obtain the secondary colors: orange (red + yellow), green (blue + yellow), and violet or purple (red + blue). Therefore, the colors that are classified as secondary colors are orange, green, and violet. This demonstrates the direct relationship between primary colors and their resulting mixed outputs. The option referring to black, white, and gray speaks to neutral colors rather than any secondary concept. Meanwhile, the colors listed in the other options either represent primary colors or tints and shades rather than the secondary color classification.
