Given word: HABITABLE

The given word can be represented as follows,

Hence, we can see that 3 such pairs are there → Forward: AB, AB; Backward: BH

So, the answer is 3 pairs.

1. Box A was kept two places below of box B.

2. Only one box was kept between B and C.

3) Box D kept below box E but above box A.

4. Box E neither kept at odd-numbered stack nor at the topmost position. So, case 1 and case 3 get eliminated.

5. At most one box was kept between box F and D.

6. Box F kept below of box G but above box H. So, case 4 gets eliminate here.

So, the final arrangement:

Hence, three boxes are kept below box D.
