There are an infinite number of rational numbers between any two rational numbers. And 2 and 7 are rational numbers. Here's an example. Take 2 and 7 and find the number halfway between them: (2 + 7)/2 = 9/2, which is rational. Then you can take 9/2 and 2 and find a rational number halfway:

2 + 9/2 = 13/2, then divide by 2 = 13/4. No matter how close the rational numbers become, you can add them together and divide by 2, and the new number will be rational, and be in between the other 2.

Infinitely many. In fact, between any two different real numbers, there are infinitely many rational numbers, and infinitely many irrational numbers.
