With Increase in reduction potential value (-Ered) the reducing property of metal also increases.
 
Since Sodium has highest reuction potential value it cannot be reduced with any other metal mentioned in the question.
 
The only suitable option is "d". i.e lead can easily be reduced by tin since lead has lower (-Ered) value than Sn (Tin).
