A Probabilistic Proof of the Multinomial Theorem Following the Number $a_n^p$

Authors: Atsu Dekpe
Comments: 3 Pages.

In this note, we give an alternate proof of the multinomial theorem following the number $ A_n^p $ using probabilistic approach. Although the multinomial theorem following the number $ A_n^p$ is basically a combinatorial result, our proof may be simple for a student familiar with only basic probability concepts.
