You’re close to getting it. You said RGB is additive. Where in print is RGB additive?

Hey dude, is everything okay? It’s just the Internet and just a discussion about printing and colours.

Quick crash course, we’re gonna ignore K for simplicity, and assume a basic RGB system. Okay, simplest conversion to CMY is…

C=1-R M=1-G Y=1-B

I’m totally skipping over a lot of stuff here, but this is about the simplest conversion for example sake.
