In order to divide by a fraction, you need to invert the second fraction, in other words, switch the numerator and denominator; then you need to MULTIPLY the fractions together.
So you would change (-22/5) to (-5/22) and reduce as needed before multiplying (-11/15) with (-5/22).

Yes right, you get 55/330, simplify: 1/6
