Let X1,X2,···,Xn denote independent continuous random variables with cdf F(x) and pdf f(x). We will denote the ordered random variables with X(1), X(2), · · · , X(n), where X(1) ≤ X(2) ≤ . . . ≤ X(n).
Probability density function of the jth order statistic.
gX (x) = n! [FX (x)]j−1 [1 − FX (x)]n−j fX (x).
Proof:
We will find the cdf of the jth order statistic and then the pdf by taking the derivative of the cdf. The cdf is denoted by FX(j)(x) = P(X(j) ≤ x). Now let’s introduce a discrete random variable Y that counts the number of variables less than or equal to x. The statement P(X(j) ≤ x) is the same as P(Y ≥ j). Why? If we call “success” the event Xi ≤ x then Y ∼ b(n,p) or Y ∼ b(n,FX(x)).

An intuitive derivation of the density function of the jth order statistic. This intuitive derivation is based onthisresultP(y≤Y ≤y+dy)≈f(y)dy.
Consider the jth order statistic X(j). If X(j) is in the neighborhood of x then there are
j − 1 random variables less than x, each one with probability p1 = P (X ≤ x) = FX (x),
1 random variable near x, with probability p2 = P (x ≤ X ≤ x + dx) ≈ fX (x)dx, and
n − j random variables larger than x, with probability p3 = P (X > x) = 1 − P (X ≤ x) = 1 − FX (x).
Therefore,
P(x≤X(j) ≤x+dx) ≈ gX(j)(x)dx

Using this intuitive derivation we can now find the joint probability density function of X(i), X(j). Using the same approximation as above, P(u ≤ X(i) ≤ u+du,v ≤ X(j) ≤ v+dv) ≈ gX(i),X(j)(u,v)dudv. For u < v we need to have the following arrangement:
Therefore, gX (x) =
