There are 2 commands:
% qfile /path/to/file
% equery b /path/to/file

qfile is in app-portage/portage-utils and equery is in
app-portage/gentoolkit. They both show which package a file belongs to.
If the file does not belong to a package it is orphaned. Then it is up
to you whether to keep or remove it. If it belongs to a package, check
if it is binary.
