Get value from json object with javascript

I am new at working with JSON objects and I have been trying to find an answer on here but the common method I have seen being used is not working for me.

I am trying to get the value 21 from the JSON object I can inspect in my javascript console.

^Object { number: Object }
    ^number: Object
        min: 21
    >_proto_: Object

The name of the JSON object is answer so I tried to use JSON.parse

obj = JSON.parse(answer);
console.log(answer.min);

Or this

obj = JSON.parse(answer);
console.log(answer.number.min);

I know I'm missing something simple but I'm a visual learner and the docs don't do much for me.

I saw the comment fields from another post, and if answer really is just an object, then the following should work.

obj = answer.number.min

I'm guessing you need obj.number.min, provided answer is a string.
