Solution

The numeric permission that must be applied to a file to enforce the following permissions:

  • Owner has read, write, and execute permissions
  • Group has read and execute permissions
  • Others have read permissions only

is 754.

Here's why:

In Linux, permissions are represented numerically:

  • Read (r) permission is represented as '4'
  • Write (w) permission is represented as '2'
  • Execute (x) permission is represented as '1'

For each user category (Owner, Group, Others), you add up the numbers corresponding to the permissions you want to give.

So, for your question:

  • The Owner has read (4), write (2), and execute (1) permissions, which add up to 7.
  • The Group has read (4) and execute (1) permissions, which add up to 5.
  • Others have read (4) permissions only.

So, the numeric permission is 754.
