Can I use a Kindle Fire Charger to charge my Google Nexus 7?

I have a First Generation Kindle Fire and a Google Nexus 7, the cable I have for my Google Nexus doesn't always work as the wiring on the inside of the cable isn't so great as it used to be (was from my old digital camera from a few years ago). I can still use the cable, but it's not exactly the best one to use.

I don't want to spend money on a new one right now, so would it be safe if I used the charger from my Kindle Fire until I do get a new charger? The Google Nexus wall charger (which needs the USB cable) provides 2 Amps while the Kindle Fire's charger provides 1.8 Amps. Both chargers give out 5 Volts.
