1. What's the answer of my question?
2. What's the answer to my question?

Hello,
Would you please tell me which is correct?
 
Thanks for answering. Can't we ever use "answer of" in any other contexts?

Thank you. Then, it will be a little hard to detect or notice if "to" is correct or "of" is correct in context which we nonnative English speakers want to make.
 
In most cases people want an answer to a question.

I have seen a nine standing on its head.
I think that's the answer to your question.

(I hope I'm not talking nonsense.:shock:)
