If the hexadecimal value is 0xE4F in the receiver part, firstly, we should convert it to binary version and it will be like this:

111001001111

We know that the places which are the power of 2 are check bits. In this frame 1, 2, 4 and 8 are check bits. We will simply delete them and get original message bits.

10101111

When we convert these bits to hexadecimal version it will be 0xAF.
