Degrees of freedom for testing homogeneity of rr multinomial populations

To test the equality of rr independent multinomial distributions, multinomial(k,pi1,…,pik)i=1…r(k,p_{i_1},\dots,p_{i_k}) i=1\dots r the null hypothesis is H0:Pij=Pj∀j=1…kH_0:P_{ij}=P_j \forall j=1\dots k where pjp_j are unknown j=1…kj=1\dots k, a χ2\chi^2 test statistic is used. The degrees of freedom of the χ2\chi^2 test are:
