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 what value is the optimal value for the gauge</title><!-- Sets the title of the document -->
</head><!-- Ends the head section -->
<body><!-- Contains the content of the document -->
<p>Display a gauge value here:</p><!-- Represents a paragraph of text -->
<p><meter value="0.3" high="0.8" low="0.1" optimum="0.4"></meter></p><!-- Defines a meter element representing a gauge 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.
The <p> tag represents a paragraph of text.
The <meter> element defines a gauge with specific range attributes (value, high, low, and optimum). In this case, the optimum attribute specifies the optimal value for the gauge.
