Hello,
Suppose that we have N independent and identically distributed Random Variables (RVs) say [tex]X_1, X_2, \ldots, X_N[/tex]. Suppose then that we arrange these RVs in magnitude and in an ascending order as [tex]X_{(1)}\leq X_{(2)}\leq \dots \leq X_{(N)}[/tex]. Now, the question is: what is the probability that we select at random any of these RVs? For example, mathematically:
Thanks in advance

[tex]\mbox{Pr}\left(X=X_3\right)=??[/tex]
