Answer

Rich black is a color that is used in printing to create a darker tone than black ink alone.

It is made by mixing solid black with one or more of the other CMYK colors (cyan, magenta, yellow, and key).

The proportion of each color can vary depending on the desired effect and the printing conditions.

A typical rich black mixture might be 100% black, 50% of each of the other three inks.

In a RGB color space, the hexadecimal code for rich black is #004040.

It is composed of 0% red, 25.1% green and 25.1% blue.

It has a hue angle of 180 degrees, a saturation of 100% and a lightness of 12.5%.
