You can stop the burning of methane with water or carbon dioxide extinguishers but problems arise when you try to use this to stop the burning of the magnesium.
Explanation:
To burn magnesium (Mg) and methane (CH₄) you need to react them with oxygen:
2 Mg (s) + O₂ (g) → 2 MgO + heat
CH₄ (g) + 2 O₂ (g) → CO₂ (g) + 2 H₂O (g) + heat
However at that temperatures magnesium (Mg) is able to react with water (H₂O) and carbon dioxide (CO₂).
Mg (s) + 2 H₂O (l) → Mg(OH)₂ (s) + H₂ (g)
2 Mg (s) + CO₂ (g) → 2 MgO (s) + C (s)
So the safe option to stop the burning of the magnesium is to limit the oxygen in the air.
we have used the following notations:
(s) - solid
(g) - gas
(l) - liquid

The chemist the count the number of particles (Atoms, Molecules or Formula Unit) in a given number of moles of a substance by using following relationship.
Moles = # of Particles / 6.022 × 10²³
Or,
# of Particles = Moles × 6.022 × 10²³
So, from above relation it is found that 1 mole of any substance contains exactly 6.022 × 10²³ particles. Greater the number of moles greater will be the number of particles.

Answer: first option, the work output of the hairdryer will be less than the work input.
Explanation:
1) The work output measured in watts is the power of hair dryer measured in joules per second.
2) The hair dryer converts electrical energy from the wall outlet to mechanical and thermal energy: hot wind.
3) Nevertheless, you can never expect a 100% efficiency of the machines: due to friction, some energy is converted into useless energy.
So, efiiviency = power output / power input< 1 ⇒
power output = work output / time
input power = work input / time
⇒ work output / work input < 1
⇒ work output < work input.
Which is the first option: the work output of the hairdryer will be less than the work input
