As we know that there are three essential components of the fire are as follows:

1. Fuel

2. Oxygen

3. Heat

Therefore, the fire can be controlled by taking away one of these three things or all the three things away. Here are the methods to put away fire:

By taking away the fuel. If the fire has no fuel to feed on, no burning can take place. It is one of the most common methods to die out a fire in a simple and easy way.

Fire can also be put out by preventing the supply of oxygen. A small fire can be put out with a damp blanket or a sack. Hence, no supply of oxygen means no fire.

Another way of putting out the fire is removing the heat if, the heat is brought down below the flash point, the fuel stops burning. Spraying water is an effective method to bring down the flash point.
