    She has run 21 miles already. Let t be the number of additional miles added on.

    In total, she has run t+21 miles

    This is going to be set greater than 38 since "Ann will run more than 38 miles"

    So we have this inequality

    t+21 > 38

    we solve for t by subtracting 21 from both sides

    t+21 > 38

    t+21-21 > 38-21

    t+0 > 17

    t > 17

    The final answer is t > 17

    which means that the possible additional number of miles she could run is anything larger than 17. So t = 18 is one possibility.
