Answer:

B: He resolved the Iran hostage situation

Step-by-step explanation:

Gerald Ford entered the White House as the 38th President in 1974 and his term ended in 1977, two years before the Iran hostage situation began (November 4, 1979), which means that he had no part in dealing with this situation.

Instead, Ford is remembered for making the controversial decision of using his power as President to pardon the former President Richard Nixon for any crimes he may have committed in office, and for ruling at a time when the U.S. economy experienced high inflation, and the unemployment rate was high, which eventually resulted in an economic recession.
