Tenga en cuenta que $\max(x_1,x_2,\dots,x_n)=\max(x_1,\max(x_2,\dots,x_n))$ . Además, hay que tener en cuenta que
$$\begin{align} \int_0^1\int_0^1\max(x,y)\,dx\,dy&=\int_0^1\left(\int_0^y y\,dx+\int_y^1 x\,dx\right)\,dy\\\\ &=\int_0^1 \left(\frac12+\frac12 y^2\right)\,dy \end{align}$$
Ahora, podemos escribir
$$\begin{align} \int_0^1 \max(x_1,x_2,\dots,x_n)\,dx_1&=\int_0^1 \max(x_1,\max(x_2,\dots,x_n))\,dx_1\\\\ &=\int_0^{\max(x_2,\dots,x_n)}\max(x_2,\dots,x_n)\,dx_1+\int_{\max(x_2,\dots,x_n)}^1x_1\,dx_1\\\\ &=\frac12 +\frac12\left(\max(x_2,\dots,x_n)\right)^2 \end{align}$$
Entonces, observe que
$$\begin{align} \frac{1}{k}\int_0^1 \left(\max(x_k,\dots ,x_n)\right)^{k}\,dx_k&=\int_0^{\max(x_{k+1},\dots ,x_n)}\left(\max(x_{k+1},\dots ,x_n)\right)^k\,dx_k+\int_{\max(x_{k+1},\dots ,x_n)}^1 x_k^k\,dx_k\\\\ &=\frac{1}{k}\left(\frac{k}{k+1}\left(\max(x_{k+1},\dots,x_n)\right)^{k+1}+\frac{1}{k+1}\right)\\\\ &=\frac{1}{k(k+1)}+\frac{1}{k+1}\left(\max(x_{k+1},\dots,x_n)\right)^{k+1} \end{align}$$
Procediendo inductivamente, encontramos que
$$\begin{align} \int_0^1\cdots \int_0^1 \max(x_1,x_2,\dots,x_n)\,dx_1\cdots dx_n&=\frac1{(2)(1)}+\frac{1}{(3)(2)}+\frac{1}{(4)(3)}+\cdots +\frac{1}{(n+1)(n)}\\\\ &=\sum_{k=1}^n \frac{1}{k(k+1)}\\\\ &=\sum_{k=1}^{n}\left(\frac{1}{k}-\frac{1}{k+1}\right)\\\\ &=\frac{n}{n+1} \end{align}$$
