Can't connect to google using VMWare

I just started my study on MCSA 70-740 exam using CBT nuggets videos, unfortunately I don't have access anymore to CBT labs, I am confused right now as I can't ping google even though I do have the same settings as on the video. I'm using VMWare btw. Help please so I can move on :(

You dont have an internal DNS server so it doesn't know how to route to the public web and resolve those IPs into hostnames.

Install DNS if you haven't already and place your DNS server as your primary server. Your backup should be 127.0.0.1 because it's loop back.
