A 47
B 16
C 26
D 48
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) 47. The fire control plan symbol 47 represents a dry chemical delivery method for small scale fires. This is based on the fire control plan symbology used in the US Coast Guard Captain's License Examinations, which requires candidates to be familiar with the different symbols and their meanings. The other answer choices are incorrect because: B) 16 represents a fire hose, C) 26 represents a fixed foam system, and D) 48 represents a carbon dioxide system, none of which specifically indicate a dry chemical delivery method for small scale fires.
