Hello!

Answer:

Class K

Step-by-step explanation:

A Class K fire extinguisher is the best type of fire extinguisher to use on a grease fire.

Class K fire extinguishers are specifically designed to put out fires involving combustible cooking oils and fats.

They contain a potassium-based extinguishing agent that coats the burning oil and prevents it from re-igniting.
