In this paper, a new flexible two-parameter family of distributions is introduced. Some mathematical properties, such as asymptotic behavior, moments, stochastic order, entropy, and quantile function, are examined. A special case of this family is introduced called Gemeay–Zeghdoudi distribution. The unknown parameters of the Gemeay–Zeghdoudi distribution are estimated via many estimators. The efficiency of the estimators is compared with a Monte Carlo simulation. The applicability of the new distribution is illustrated by the annual maximum flood and survival times of patients with breast cancer real data analyses.
