Fire survives only as long as the chain reaction continues to heat fuel to its ignition point in an oxygen atmosphere.
To stop the fire:
All fire extinguishers do one or more of these. You can do the same using ordinary tools or materials.
If the fire is on a cooking stove, remove the heat. The fire may run out of fuel and stop. Or, you can carefully dump a box of baking soda on it, which smothers the fire. Or, you can place a heavy blanket over the fire to smother it in its own smoke.
In the woods, firefighters often use a "fuel separation" to stop wildfires. You can do the same with a campfire: scrape the surrounding area down to bare soil for twice the distance sparks may be thrown from the fire.
Obviously, any amount of water is going to affect a fire by removing the heat and by wetting the fuel, making it harder to ignite (more heat needed). A simple bucket of water or sand was all the "fire extinguisher" anyone had for thousands of years.
first you get the extinguisher, aim it at the stupid fire. Then i think the extinguisher has some special sensor that finds the fire and sprays at it.
enjoy.
Fires can be smothered with anything that will not burn. Dirt or sand thrown on top, or a heavy tarp or fire blanket.
Extinguish means "put out", so a fire extinguisher puts out fire.

No. Depending upon the type of fire, there are other ways. For instance, a brush fire can be put out with dirt or water, but is generally put out by removing the fuel. An electrical fire might be put out by simply turning off the electricity. A fire extinguisher contains water or other chemicals and you can certainly apply water or chemicals to a fire without having them come out of an extinguisher.
Put it out with a fire extinguisher.
Liquid
To put out a fire...
Get a fire extinguisher! Or get LOTS of water!
Use a foam extinguisher to smother the fire without spreading it.
