Color subtraction is mixing of dyes, inks, paint pigments or colorants to create a wider range of colors. Each color is the result of partially or completely subtracting some wavelengths of color and not others.

Distinguish between additive and subtractive color mixing processes?
The additive color process is mixing lights while the subtractive color process is mixing paints and dyes. In the additive color process when you mix all of the main colors together: red, green, and blue: you get white(hence the name additive) while if you do the exact same thing in the subtractive color process: cyan, magenta, and yellow: you get black(hence the name subtractive because in order to get white you'd have to take away all of the colors).
When pigments of primary subtractive colors are combined what color results?
Black
Is grinding machine additive or subtractive?
Subtractive - because they remove material from the object being ground.
What color does red and yellow make using subtractive primary colors?
Red and yellow are both primary colors so if you mix them together you would get orange.
What is the opposite word of extra?
subtractive Principal actor.
Do printers use subtractive color mode for the 4 color process?
yes

What is the primary subtractive color complementary to red?
Is this a trick homework question? I don't believe there is a 100% truthful answer because a subtractive colour is made up of two primaries, and a primary colour is not subtractive any more than a subtractive colour is primary ("...primary subtractive colour..."). Neither can there be a "main" subtractive colour if we are to consider your use of the word "primary" in your question to mean that. The complementary colour to red is cyan, which is made up of blue and green in equal amounts.
When do you use color subtraction?
Nearly all modern color photographic film processes use subtractive color because it is more efficient. It produces a very good facsimile of the original scene colors with less loss of light than with additive color. Each additive color filter subtracts two-thirds of the white light striking it, while each subtractive color filter transmits two-thirds. With three color dye layers in subtractive color film, all colors can be reproduced: the subtractive primaries are magenta, cyan, and yellow, each of which absorbs its complementary color. Combinations of these three colors can reproduce their shared additive primary. For example, magenta transmits red and blue, while absorbing green light. Cyan transmits blue and green, while absorbing red. When superimposed, both red and green are absorbed and only the shared blue transmission is permitted. By varying the density of each subtractive filter, virtually any color can be reproduced.
What color process is the human color vision due to?
the subtractive color process. I know this answer because Mr.Capo taught me in Mater Gardens Academy in Miami, Fl.
What color will you get when all the colors are combined?
When all the 12 hues of the color wheel are mixed in subtractive system (physical pigment) it creates black.
Which of the fill and stroke panels four method mimics the way subtractive color works?
The CMYK Tab
Is the color black a natural color?
Technically speaking, black is not a color at all. Color is the way we perceive light of a given frequency; if it has a wavelength that is, say, 510 nanometers, then we perceive green light. Black, however, is an absence of light. Therefore, black is not a color at all, rather, it is an absence of color. Unless you are speaking of subtractive colors - then black is the presence of all color and white is the absence of all color. Additive color is light - subtractive color is the color that light bouncing from an object creates.
yellow?
of the color between green and orange in the spectrum, a primary subtractive color complementary to blue; colored like ripe lemons or egg yolks.
What minus red equals white?
Removing colors from a mixture to get the color white is known as subtractive color mixing. Removing the color cyan from red will turn the mixture white.
Is green a prime color?
Depends. On a TV monitor it is. On a canvas it's not. (first is additive colors, second is subtractive)
