Facts and examples that support a claim are called ___

an argument

evidence

an evaluation.

Reasons

Reasons are statements or explanations that support a claim, but they may not necessarily be backed up by evidence or examples. Evidence, on the other hand, refers to facts, statistics, or pieces of information that support a claim. Examples are specific instances or cases that illustrate a claim and provide further support for it. An evaluation typically refers to an assessment or judgment of something, rather than providing support for a claim.
