Answer: an extinguisher and a blanket

Step-by-step explanation:

An extinguisher and a blanket are expected to be helpful in extinguishing fire. As both of these items will cut the supply of oxygen from the burning fire. Oxygen enhances the intensity of fire. A typical fire extinguisher consists of carbon dioxide gas which suppresses oxygen. The blanket will have more density can be used to suppress the fire.
