Because primary pretty much means main. And the primary colors are main because they make the other colors. Go figure:
Blue + Yellow = Green
Red + Blue = Purple
Yellow + Red = Orange
Definition? O.K.
List of primaries? Wrong.
Printing: yellow, cyan, magenta, plus black to make solid blacks.
Televison: red, green blue.
All wrong :)
There really is no such thing as "primary" colors. All colors have a warm and cold value which cannot be mixed. If you mix blue + yellow and they are not of the same value, you get brown. If you mix a warm blue with a warm yellow you will get a warm green. Cold red + cold yellow = cold orange. If you don't understand this, I highly recommend the book "Blue and Yellow Don't Make Green" by Michael Wilcox.
