$\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{2}, \sqrt{11})$ divided by its non trivial ideal is isomorphic to?

I understand what an ideal is! Since $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{2}, \sqrt{11})$ is a field, it has two ideals, {0} and itself.

Non-trivial ideal of $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{2}, \sqrt{11})$ is $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{2}, \sqrt{11})$ itself.

Therefore, $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{2}, \sqrt{11})$ divided by its non trivial ideal is isomorphic to singleton set {0 + $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{2}, \sqrt{11})$}.

However the answer was simply singleton {0}. Why was my answer wrong?
