Solution:

HTML Code:

<!DOCTYPE html><!-- Declares the document type and version of HTML -->
<html><!-- Begins the HTML document -->
<head><!-- Contains metadata about the document -->
<meta charset="utf-8"><!-- Specifies the character encoding for the document -->
<title>How to specify the maximum value of the range</title><!-- Sets the title of the document -->
</head><!-- Ends the head section -->
<body><!-- Contains the content of the document -->
<p>Display a gauge:</p><!-- Represents a paragraph of text -->
<p>James's score: <meter min="0" low="30" high="90" max="100" value="85"></meter></p><!-- Defines a meter element representing James's score with specific range attributes -->
<p>Harry's score: <meter min="0" low="30" high="90" max="100" value="55"></meter></p><!-- Defines a meter element representing Harry's score with specific range attributes -->
<p>David's score: <meter min="0" low="30" high="90" max="100" value="25"></meter></p><!-- Defines a meter element representing David's score with specific range attributes -->
</body><!-- Ends the body section -->
</html><!-- Ends the HTML document -->

Explanation:

The HTML document starts with a declaration of its type and version (<!DOCTYPE html>).
The <html> element encloses the entire HTML document.
The <head> section contains metadata about the document.
The <meta charset="utf-8"> tag specifies the character encoding for the document as UTF-8.
The <title> tag sets the title of the document.
The <body> section contains the content of the document.
Three <p> tags represent paragraphs of text.
Each <p> tag contains a <meter> element representing the score of a person (James, Harry, and David) with specific range attributes (min, low, high, max, and value). In this case, the max attribute specifies the maximum value of the range.
