Question: 1 / 400

Adding more gray to a color will produce what effect?

Hue

Adding more gray to a color will produce the effect of changing the hue. When gray is added to a color, it makes the color less vibrant and shifts it towards a more neutral tone. This results in a change in the overall color appearance, hence affecting the hue.

In this context:

- Saturation refers to the intensity or purity of a color and is not directly affected by adding gray.

- Shade typically refers to a color that has been darkened by adding black rather than gray.

- Tone is a mix of color with gray added but specifically refers to adjusting the lightness or darkness of the color without changing the hue.
