Hexel and Sachs obtained formulas for the number of occurrences of each residue modulo any prime \(p\) in the \(n\)th row of Pascal's triangle. Davis and Webb considered the same problem modulo 4 by a different approach. This is the only case of composite modulus for which formulas for the number of occurrences have been obtained. In this paper, the above mentioned results are extended to multinomial and \(q\)-binomial coefficients. Explicit formulas are obtained for \(p=3\). For \(p>3\) formulas can be worked out in terms of Hexel and Sachs results. For multinomial coefficients, formulas are obtained for the number of occurrences of each residue modulo 4 and the same problem is considered for \(p=3\) and \(p>3\).
