What steps should be taken to increase the cyan saturation to +50?

  1. Open the Auto Tone menu

  2. Select Image > Adjustments > Color Balance

  3. Access Image > Adjustments > Hue/Saturation

  4. Change the color mode to RGB

The correct answer is: Access Image > Adjustments > Hue/Saturation

To increase the cyan saturation to +50, accessing the Hue/Saturation adjustment is the most effective approach. The Hue/Saturation feature allows for dynamic adjustments to the color saturation levels of specific colors or the entire image. By selecting this option, you can pinpoint the cyan channel and increase its saturation, while leaving other colors unaffected. This targeted manipulation helps achieve the desired cyan enhancement in a nuanced manner. The other methods listed would not specifically achieve the goal of adjusting cyan saturation alone. The Auto Tone menu generally applies overall tonal adjustments rather than specific color saturation modifications. Color Balance primarily focuses on shifting colors towards red, green, or blue, thus impacting overall color rather than specifically targeting cyan saturation. Changing the color mode to RGB alters how colors are represented in the file but does not directly affect saturation levels or allow for adjustment of specific colors.
