Solution

To find the number of alphabets between the third and eighth letters of the word "POINTERS," we need to determine the position of each letter in the English alphabetical order.

  1. The third letter of the word "POINTERS" is "I."
  2. The eighth letter of the word "POINTERS" is "R."

Now, we count the number of alphabets between "I" and "R" in the English alphabetical order.

Starting from "I," we count "J," "K," "L," "M," "N," and "O" before reaching "R."

Therefore, there are 6 alphabets between the third and eighth letters of the word "POINTERS."
