Final answer:

Emir will pay $165.66 for shipping and handling.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the amount of shipping and handling Emir will pay, we need to multiply the price of the chandelier by the percentage of shipping and handling.

First, we find 17% of $974.57.

To do this, we multiply $974.57 by 0.17.

Shipping and handling = $974.57 * 0.17

= $165.66.

Therefore, Emir will pay $165.66 for shipping and handling.
