[Answer]


忙しい1日だったので、家に帰ると（3 ほっと）した。

I had a busy day, so I felt relieved when I got home.





ほっとする

= “to feel relieved”

This describes the feeling when stress or worry goes away.

Busy day

→ stress and tension

Came home

→ relaxed and safe



When you feel relieved because worry or tension is gone, we say ほっとする.



So, ほっとした is the perfect answer.





✖ Other choices:

1. はっと

= suddenly realize or be surprised

2. さっと

= do something quickly

4. ざっと

= do something roughly or briefly





I hope this explanation helps! 😊
