Question

The pixel values for a 3 band and 8-bit image are (127, 127, 127). On an RGB colour display, this pixel will appear ..............................

• A. green
• B. black
• C. gray
• D. white

Hint:

RGB with $R=G=B$ gives a gray level; the value sets brightness: low $\to$ dark, high $\to$ bright.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

In an 8-bit RGB image, each channel (R,G,B) ranges from 0 to 255. Equal intensities in all three channels produce a neutral colour (no hue):
- (0,0,0) $⇒$ black,
- (255,255,255) $⇒$ white,
- any equal mid-level like (127,127,127) $⇒$ mid-gray.
\[ \boxed{\text{gray}} \]
