Hello,
post your Packet Tracer project (.pkt) file here as a zipped attachment...

Hello,
here is the thing: Packet Tracer is a simulator with only a limited set of commands. On 'real' routers, you could use IP SLAs to achieve failover. That would look like below. If the main default route is down, the secondary default route would kick in. Unfortunately, Packet Tracer does not support that. Your other option would be to use a routing protocol such as BGP, and manipulate the metric. In BGP, you could use the weight attribute to prefer one path over the other.

To all concerned,
It is very clear this thread is school work.
Help the students learn: Post the links to documents and configuration guides.
Please refrain from handing out answers.

Hello,
typically, you would achieve this with IP SLAs or configuring one of the interfaces with the 'backup interface' command. Or you can run a dynamic routing protocol and manipulate the metrics. If possible, post the Packet Tracer project file (.pkt), zip it first, otherwise the system won't let you upload it. Keep in mind that Packet Tracer has only a limited set of commands, and 'real' IOS routers have much more extensive options...
