a) A bridge hand consists of 13 cards. How many bridge hands include 5 of one suit, 6 cards of another and 2 cards of a third?
My answer key says the answer is 4 134 297 024

I have tried and have no clue how to do it

\(\displaystyle 4\cdot\dbinom{13}{5}\cdot3\cdot\dbinom{13}{6}\cdot2\cdot\dbinom{13}{2}=~?\)
 
Can you tell me why you multiplied by the integers? Where did those values come from?
How many suits are available for the first hand? Then how many suits are available for the second? And so forth. ;)
