The administrative distance of a default route is 1 (one) and is seen as a static route.

According the AA Route Planner (GB Edition) the distance is 76.5 miles, this will take about 1 hours and 29 minutes to drive, assuming you take the direct route and there are no stops, accidents, breakdowns or other hold ups en route.
The distance varies by route, but the minimum distance, driving, is 910 kilometers, according to Google Maps.
According the AA Route Planner (GB Edition) the distance is 94.9 miles, this will take about 1 hour and 44 minutes to drive, assuming you take the direct route and there are no stops, accidents, breakdowns or other hold ups en route.
According the AA Route Planner (GB Edition) the distance is 92.7 miles, this will take about 2 hours and 7 minutes to drive, assuming you take the direct route and there are no stops, accidents, breakdowns or other hold ups en route.
by default the administrative distance is one (1), but you can give it an optional value. The metric is zero (0).

Compared to RIP, EIGRP has a lower administrative distance.
Administrative distance refers to the trustworthiness of a particular route. Routes with the smallest metric to a destination indicate the best path.

generally static routing protocol has the most trustworthy administrative distance .i.e; 1 and in dynamic routing protocols EIGRP has the best AD.
The route via Path B is installed because the EIGRP route has the best metric to network 10.2.0.0/16. The route via Path A is installed because the static route has the best metric to network 10.2.0.0/16. The route via Path B is installed because the EIGRP route has the lowest administrative distance to network 10.2.0.0/16. The route via Path A is installed because the static route has the lowest administrative distance to network 10.2.0.0/16.

Default route
When you have routing enabled then you need default route (also calleddefault network or Gateway of Last Resort). You do not need default routeif you don't use routing. For example if you just have one router in your network there is no need for default route. When you have more than one router in a network you need default route.Note: If you connect to WAN (Internet) you need default route. The default route allows connection with Internet. If you are not using WAN and have one router than there is not need for default route but in these days everyone connects to the Internet so most likely your router has default route. When using router to connect to the Internet using DHCP this happens automatically so there will no need to configure default route manually. If you need to manually set default route then use the commands IP default-network or IP route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 .More info can be found at Cisco's site - see the related link below.
