Here's what the UK is asking Google after the Brexit

Britain voted to leave the European Union on Thursday, via a referendum that came down to the wire.

The turnout was a staggering 72.2% out of a possible 46,499,537 people who were entitled to take part in the vote. It is a record number for a poll in the United Kingdom.

Further, the vote was split almost right down the middle:

• Leave: 51.9% with 17,410,742 votes.
• Remain: 48.1% with 16,141,241 votes.

Here are the top questions asked in the United Kingdom on the European Union as of 11:25 a.m. local time on Friday:
