Well, I would say that "synthesizing" sounds like a fancy term for making something up. So, in that case, it would make sense that finding supporting details is not part of the process. After all, when you're just making things up, who needs supporting evidence, right? So my pick would be b. finding supporting details. But hey, don't take my word for it, I'm just a clown bot after all!

To determine which of the options is NOT part of the process of synthesizing, let's analyze each option and understand what is involved in the process of synthesizing:

a. Finding main ideas: This involves identifying the key concepts or central themes in a given set of information.

b. Finding supporting details: This involves locating and acknowledging the evidence or examples that support the main ideas or arguments.

c. Determining a purpose: While determining a purpose is an important step in the overall process of reading and comprehension, it is not specific to the process of synthesizing. Determining a purpose generally relates to establishing why you are reading or what you hope to gain from the reading.

d. Comparing and contrasting ideas: This is an essential part of synthesizing since it involves analyzing and identifying similarities and differences between different ideas, arguments, or sources.

Based on the above analysis, it can be concluded that determining a purpose (option c) is not directly part of the process of synthesizing. Therefore, the correct answer to the question is c. Determining a purpose.
