Solution:

HTML Code:

<!DOCTYPE html><!-- Declaration of HTML5 document type -->
<html>
<head>
<title>How to set the background image default value</title><!-- Title of the HTML document -->
<style>/* CSS style start*/
body {
background: url("https://www.w3resource.com/images/w3resource-logo.png"); /* Setting background image for the body */
background-repeat:no-repeat; /* Setting background repeat property to "no-repeat" */
background-size:auto; /* Setting background size property to "auto" (default value) */
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<p>The background-size CSS property specify the default value of the background images.</p><!-- Paragraph content -->
</body>
</html>

Explanation:

This HTML document demonstrates how to set the background image default value using CSS.
The CSS style block defines styling for the body element.
The background image used in this example is the w3resource logo.
background-repeat:no-repeat; is used to set the background repeat property to "no-repeat", which means the background image will not be repeated.
background-size:auto; is used to set the background size property to "auto", which is the default value.
The "auto" value for background size means that the background image will be displayed at its intrinsic size without scaling.
The HTML content consists of a paragraph explaining the background-size CSS property.
