D. Water

  • carbon dioxide reduces the oxygen concentration in the surrounding, thus no combustion can taken place.

  • Blanket cuts the oxygen supply from the surroundings.

  • Sand stops the oxygen from reaching the fire for a few moment.

  • Water gives the fire a wide spread across the burning surface.
