I'm looking for a "high school / undergraduate" demonstration for the:
All the binomial coefficients (ni)=n!i!⋅(n−i)! for all i, 0<i<n, are divisible by a prime p only if n is a power of p.
There is a "elementary" (good for high school) demonstration of reciprocal here: http://mathhelpforum.com/number-theory/186439-binomial-coefficient.html
And for this part I'm trying to avoid using more advanced tools like the Theorem of Lucas or Kummer.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.
