In this paper we use some known transformations available in the Theory of Multiple Integrals to give straightforward, simpler, and elegant proofs of some distributions of ordered values from Burr and beta distributions. The exact distribution (under the null hypothesis) of Wilks' ∧ criterion is obtained by considering it as a certain minimum value distribution problem.
