To find the difference between -7/11 and -2/11, we can subtract the second fraction from the first fraction.

The two fractions have the same denominator, which is 11. So, we can directly subtract the numerators:

(-7/11) - (-2/11) = -7/11 + 2/11.

Combining the numerators, we get:

-7/11 + 2/11 = (-7 + 2)/11.

Simplifying the numerator, we have:

-7 + 2 = -5.

Therefore, the difference between -7/11 and -2/11 is -5/11.
