or is it yellow, cyan, and magenta.


those could be wrong IDK

Answer 1

red, yellow, and blue are the primary colors of pigments

red, green, and blue are the primary colors of light

yellow, cyan, and magenta are subtractive primaries

Answer 2

There really is no such thing as primary colors. There is no finite set of wavelengths of light which can produce the complete optical spectrum. However, light of any two wavelengths in the visible spectrum can create the human visual perception of any color. Human optical receptors are sensitive at three separate wavelengths. Other animals can have more or fewer separate detection wavelengths. Color perception is done by the brain by comparing the relative response of the three sets of color receptors. This is why two lasers are enough to generate a full-color hologram.

Television uses three (RGB, red green blue) for better linearity and interpolation, therefore more accurate color perception. Pigments are subtractive, not additive. A dye will absorb some portions of the spectrum. The details of the absorbtion spectrum generally aren't simple.
