What could one do with these different instruments to survive on a deserted island: A frying pan, duct tape, a tire, newspaper, one match, a boat paddle, a hammer, a wire, and towel?

A frying pan) somewhat sanitarily cook fish

duct tape) bind together wood or leaves to make some type of shelter

a tire) a decent place to sit ontop of the hot sand or even maybe create a flotation device

one match) sparingly start a fire

a boat paddle) paddle home once a stable flotable boat is created

a hammer) hammer together wood

a wire) possibly spark a fire?

a towel) cover with at night when too cold! cover head and shoulders when out in the sun.

Food, shelter, hunt for food, build a boat to get back, make a rope swing with the tire, build a fire ... lots of stuff
