Correct Answer: Option B — an
Why "an"?
In English, the choice between "a" and "an" depends on the sound that follows the article:

Use "an" before words that begin with a vowel sound (a, e, i, o, u).

Use "a" before words that begin with a consonant sound.

In your sentence, the word "easy" begins with the vowel sound /iː/, so "an" is the correct fit.
