You can't answer the question with the information you gave.  You just 
say that there are three upstream providers with OSPF and BGP.  You 
don't say which routes come over which and what their weights are.

Just check your routing table.  Whatever path has the best routes to one 
of the networks you specified will become the gateway of last resort.


As for their precidence, I don't know.  As with most things cisco, it 
could either be the order that they are in the config script, top down, 
or the order of their sorted queue.  So it may go through all of the 
best 10 routes before the best 192 routes.  That's something to put into 
lab.

Usually, you only have one default network.  The only case I can think 
of that you might have more is if you want everything to flow to data 
center A if there isn't a route unless data center A gets hit by a large 
falling rock, then transfer all the default traffic to data center B. 
To have more than one increases complexity, and with complexity comes 
failure.
