# Answer Box Results

Sometimes if you make certain queries (i.e. currency conversion, math equations) in your Google search will result in an instant answer from Google, displayed inside a specific box, on top of the results. 

If available, the content of this box will be displayed inside the `answer_box` array which includes:

<table><thead><tr><th width="123">Element</th><th width="99">Type</th><th>Description</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><code>type</code></td><td><code>String</code></td><td>Type of answer box (calculator, organic result, converter, etc.)</td></tr><tr><td><code>result</code></td><td><code>String</code></td><td>The actual answer, when the answer box can be inlined.</td></tr></tbody></table>
