\begin{align}
S(\mathbf{q}) &= 1 + \frac{1}{N} \langle \sum_{i \neq j} \mathrm{e}^{-i \mathbf{q} (\mathbf{r}_i - \mathbf{r}_j)} \rangle = 1 + \frac{1}{N} \left \langle \int_V \mathrm{d} \mathbf{r} \, \mathrm{e}^{-i \mathbf{q} \mathbf{r}} \sum_{i \neq j} \delta \left [ \mathbf{r} - (\mathbf{r}_i - \mathbf{r}_j) \right ] \right \rangle \\ &= 1+ \frac{N(N-1)}{N} \int_V \mathrm{d} \mathbf{r}\, \mathrm{e}^{-i \mathbf{q} \mathbf{r}} \left \langle \delta ( \mathbf{r} - \mathbf{r}_1 ) \right \rangle ,

, and thus:
 
<math>S(\mathbf{q}) = 1 + \rho \int_V \mathrm{d} \mathbf{r} \, \mathrm{e}^{-i \mathbf{q} \mathbf{r}} g(\mathbf{r})</math>, proving the Fourier relation alluded to above.
