In a sentence
Das gelbe Auto gehört meinem Freund.
The yellow car belongs to my friend.
'Gelben' is used as an adjective modifying the noun 'Auto', which is neuter nominative and singular. The word takes the weak inflection '-e' as it's preceded by the definite article 'Das', resulting in 'gelbe'.
Ich sah die gelben Blumen im Park.
I saw the yellow flowers in the park.
Here, 'gelben' modifies 'Blumen', which is plural and accusative feminine. As it's preceded by the definite article 'die,' 'gelben' takes the weak inflection ending '-en.'
Er zeigte auf die gelben Seiten des Buches.
He pointed to the yellow pages of the book.
In this sentence, 'gelben' describes 'Seiten' (feminine plural) and is preceded by the definite accusative article 'die.' The adjective 'gelben' adopts the weak '-en' inflection as a result.
