To divide fractions, you need to multiply by the reciprocal of the second fraction.

So, -10/11 divided by -2/5 is equal to (-10/11) * (5/-2).

When you multiply the fractions, you multiply the numerators (-10 * 5) and the denominators (11 * -2).

The result is (-50)/(-22), which simplifies to 25/11.

Therefore, the quotient is 25/11.
