Abstract
Let X1, . . .,Xn be independent nonnegative random variables with cumulative distribution functions F1, F2, . . . , Fn satisfying certain (rather mild) conditions. We show that the median of kth smallest order statistic of the vector (X1, . . . , Xn) is equivalent to the quantile of order (k − 1/2)/n with respect to the averaged distribution $$ F=\frac{1}{n}\sum \limits_{i=1}^n{F}_i $$ .
