if you go with 'A' you will have to do it for every vm's you remove/create (100+). instead if you have a report, you can action. thats why they gave report as a option

It's confusing, maybe an old question, when D can be a suitable answer. Nowadays it can be done using the below steps : https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/disks-find-unattached-portal

Correct answer is C. Because Azure Optimization uses Azure Recommendation Services

I am not even seeing an option for an "Optimizer" tab under Cost Management so D doesn't seem to be correct.

C because they'll always want you to use their latest and greatest tool; Azure Advisor. The Advisor tells you when disks are being unused. There are multiple correct ways to do this, but I believe C is the best answer.

It would make more sense for this question to be worded more like which option should you NOT pick. B,C and D all accomplish basically the same thing and I would consider all of them correct. A is the only answer that seems incomplete since just going to account management in the storage explorer will not by itself show you orphaned disks. The best answer of course would be to use the Disks blade, but that is not an option.

Azure Cost Management works with Azure Advisor to provide cost optimization recommendations. Azure Advisor helps you optimize and improve efficiency by identifying idle and underutilized resources. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cost-management-billing/costs/tutorial-acm-opt-recommendations So i feel answer is C

Seems like an old question with old options. The best way to go to disks... Very easy - but not an option https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/disks-find-unattached-portal
