If you must choose, then out of Yellow, Magenta and Cyan...

  2. Which one looks the least like an in between of two primary^1^ colors?
  3. Which one looks the most like one of the primary colors?
  4. Which one looks the most white?
  5. Which one looks the most black?

I'm asking, because I want to know if people see colors the same way as I do.
If my "red" is your "green" I expect different answers.

^1^ Primary colors are Red, Green and Blue.

Not the answer you are looking for, just here to add that CMY are also primary colors. Is just a different palette, that is more suitable for print (with the addition of black [K]) than for painting . Both palettes (cmy and the taditional red,blue,yellow) work the same way (substractive color), in contrast to the rgb palette that is on your example (additive color).

Note that green is a secondary color in the traditional and cmy palettes , resulting from the mix of blue and yellow or cyan and yellow.

Cmy

Red, blue, yellow
