Microsoft Azure Fundamentals — Question 229

Your company has an Azure subscription that contains the following unused resources:
✑ 20 user accounts in Azure Active Directory (Azure AD)
✑ Five groups in Azure AD
✑ 10 public IP addresses
✑ 10 network interfaces
You need to reduce the Azure costs for the company.
Which unused resources should you remove?

Answer options

• A. the network interfaces
• B. the public IP addresses
• C. the groups
• D. the user accounts

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Removing public IP addresses is the most effective way to reduce costs because they incur charges even when not in use. Network interfaces, user accounts, and groups generally do not have direct costs associated with them in the same way that public IP addresses do.
