A supporting detail is used to validate a claim to prove that the claim is indeed true.

A claim on the other hand is a statement made by an author about something which can either be true or false.

Let me give you an example of a claim and how supporting details can be used:

All tall boys are smarter than shorter boys
America has a population of 30 million people
The Earth is round

Now, because i made these claims, i have to provide supporting details to backup this claim.

To do this, i would have to bring reputable sources which contains the figures which would be my supporting details.

I could bring the population figures from an independent reliable source to prove that America indeed has a population of 30 million people.

Please note that your question is incomplete which made me to give you a general overview so that you can understand the concept.
