Oil fire cannot be extinguish with water. Why?

Oil fire cannot be extinguish with water. Why?
 Answer : 
          Since the specific gravity of oil is less than water, it vats over water. As a result, water will not put out oil fires once the burning oil will float on top of the water and read.

           Rowing sand, table salt, or banking soda on the flames will distinguish them. Also a damp towel spread over the fire will col nd smother it but all the water must be wrung out.
