Answer:


(1)/(4) part of whole pan.

Explanation:

Tina has
(1)/(2) of a pan of cornbread left from a dinner party.

She ate
(1)/(2) of the leftover part.

Left over part of pan =
(1)/(2)

Therefore,
(1)/(2) of
(1)/(2)

=
(1)/(2) ×
(1)/(2)

=
(1)/(4) part of the whole pan.

Tina ate
(1)/(4) part of whole pan of cornbread.
