+## Task 4: Create a new resource group
 
 In this task, you will create a new resource group. A resource group is a grouping of related resources (such as all the resources for a project, a department, or an application). Resource groups provide a way to limit access to a subset of your organization's resources. In this case, we want the virtual machine administrators to only have access to virtual machines in the lab and not all of the organization's virtual machines.
