What creates neutral tones in coloring?

  1. Unequal combo of primary colors

  2. Equal parts of primary colors

  3. Perfect combo of both cool and warm tones

  4. Mixing black and white

The correct answer is: Perfect combo of both cool and warm tones

Out of the four choices given, option C is the only one that accurately describes what creates neutral tones in coloring. Unequal combinations of primary colors, as described in option A, would not result in neutral tones but rather in different shades of the primary colors. Similarly, equal parts of primary colors, as stated in option B, would also result in different shades of the primary colors rather than neutral tones. Adding black and white, as mentioned in option D, can create shades of gray but not necessarily neutral tones. Only a perfect combination of both cool and warm tones, as stated in option C, can create true neutral tones in coloring.
