Class A fires (paper, wood plastic, etc) can be put out by water, dry chem, or carbon dioxide extinguishers. Class B (flammable liquids like oils and natural gases) can be put out with dry chem and carbon dioxide. Class C (electrical fires) can be put out only by dry chem. Dry chem is the only extinguisher that does all three of them however it is not recommended on Class A fires because it is not useful in putting out sparks.
