This exercise is to mimic the effects of using colour filters in black and white photography. In digital, following conversion to Black & White you can raise the brightness of red/yellow/green/blue to recreate the effect of using a filter. This has the same effect as a filter because, for example, a yellow filter will let more yellow light than any other colour, so had the effect of raising the brightness of all yellow objects.

b&w - unfiltered |
 |
red filter |
The above photo is the equivalent of using a red filter - the red top is now significantly lighter than it was previously.
 |
yellow filter |
And now the yellow filter makes the yellow top lighter.
 |
green filter |
The green top was pretty dark so while it's made lighter it's still quite dark.
 |
blue filter |
And now the blue filter.
