The second set of the three permissions (r-) indicates that A. group has read permission only B. other has read permission only C. owner has read permission only D. group has write permission only E. None of the above

group has read permission only
other has read permission only
owner has read permission only
group has write permission only E. None of the above

The correct answer is: B. other has read permission only

The three permissions are:

  • Owner : The user who created the file.
  • Group : The group that the user belongs to.
  • Other : All other users.

The permissions are:

  • Read : The user can read the file.
  • Write : The user can write to the file.
  • Execute : The user can run the file.

In this case, the second set of permissions is r-. This means that the other users have read permission only. They cannot write

to the file or run it.

The other options are incorrect because they do not match the permissions that are given.
