So Many People Will Get This Wrong: What Is The Opposite Of Red? by Tosdam(m): 7:30pm On Aug 22, 2014
My uncle that works in a construction company shared his interview experience with me some hours ago and I wish to share it with you guys here too.

Uncle Joe sit me down and tells me why so many graduates flop in an interview questions these days. He tells me how so many graduate prepare hard for an interview but get soak with shame and embarrassment after the interview. He further picture how the best student with the best result still strive hard to have a pass mark in a cheap interview question.

Interview is not about showing your skill in calculus but expressing how fast and the level of your intelligent quotient.

Now, let me share you one of the top most question asked by an employer in a construction company.

Question:

The opposite of white is black, what is the opposite of RED?

Note: This is an interview question. Uncle Joe was the only luckiest applicant that got it right and got the Job........

Traffic

Red - stop
Green - Go



Military
Red - Danger
White - Safe



Engineering
Red - Hot
Blue - Cold


So its either green or white or blue

Answer is a variable, the context in which the question is being asked, is the determinant.

Just like black is the opposite of white, standard colors also have opposites. The result of putting opposite colors together is either a clashing or loud feeling, depending on which pair you choose. Below are the opposites for primary colors:

Blue is the opposite of Orange
Yellow is the opposite of Purple
Red is the opposite of Green
Black is the opposite of White

Something tells me it's white. Since red stands for danger and white on the other hand stands for peace.

According to decreasing wavelength
Red > orange > yellow > green > blue > indigo > violet

For decreasing frequency
VIBGYOR

So from this violet is the opposite of red.

To prove this further, tune your phone camera to negative and view a red object.
