There is no way to be sure, since you don't say what base was used in each paint. Because of the way paints are made the colour can turn out very different to what you expect.

What color are you trying to create? If I knew that I could help more. I also don't really know your taste. Do you want a more bolder brighter color? Something darker, or something much lighter? Do you want to stay a yellowish/peach looking color? Or do you wish to chnage your color completely? There are so many possiblities when combining paints? Remember whites will lighten the color you already have. I think a dark red will make it more of a tan or brown. Possibly an orange. I would really love to see a color when you are done.

I'm not sure. It seems to me that it would turn out to be an orange color if you put it over top of the yellow. It may even turn out to look a little pinkish.
