Answer 1

Answer:

1. The third way is to remove the heat or bring down the temperature.

2. No supply of oxygen means no fire. Small fires can be put out or ‘smothered’ with a damp blanket or a sack. This stops oxygen reaching the burning material. Sometimes, carbon dioxide is used to extinguish fire.
