B/D? B is definitely right for hourly, but D has a typo with that "o" instead of zero, so it can't be correct. The rest don’t match the hourly pattern properly.

B, since 0 * * * * means at minute zero every hour.

Option A runs every minute, so it can’t be once per hour.

B/D? D has that weird "o" which looks like a typo, so it’s probably invalid. B clearly sets minute 0 every hour, which fits the once-per-hour run perfectly.

B imo, since 0 * * * * hits the top of every hour exactly.

B runs it at the start of every hour, so that’s the one.
