How you can make the color yellow?

Yellow is a primary color which means it is one of the three colors that when combined with one another, make every other color in the world. The three primary colors are blue, red, and yellow. Yellow cannot be made out of any colors because it is a primary color. If you were to mix blue and yellow, you would get green. Yellow and red would be orange. Blue and red would make purple. Mixing different primary colors and different amounts make all the different colors there are. Yellow is already yellow. No colors mixed together can make yellow.
