The solution will be two Automations. One to fire off the parent and one to fire off the child. It's probably a low volume table and one easy solution is to to create a saved table to table import to import the records into itself, merging on [Record ID#].
Set a filter to only update where the formula does not = the Multiple choice field.
The Automation would trigger the saved table to table import to update all records where there is a mismatch.
