There are a few possible contexts that could describe a difference of rational numbers:
1) Money: If you have $10 and you spend $3.50, the difference between the two amounts is $6.50.
2) Time: If you have 5 hours and 20 minutes and you spend 3 hours and 45 minutes, the difference between the two times is 1 hour and 35 minutes.
3) Measurements: If you have a piece of rope that is 8 feet long and you cut off 3.5 feet, the difference between the two lengths is 4.5 feet.
