In LM hashing (used in legacy Windows systems), passwords are split into two 7-character chunks. If a password is fewer than 8 characters, the second half is padded with nulls and hashed to a constant value.

That constant is:

AAD3B435B51404EE

Thus, the second half of the LM hash (the rightmost 16 characters) is always the same if the password is < 8 characters.

From CEH v13 Courseware:

Module 6: Malware Threats → LM Hash Characteristics

CEH v13 Study Guide states:

“If the password is less than 8 characters, the second half of the LM hash will always be ‘AAD3B435B51404EE’, indicating the hash belongs to a short password.”
