Lavinia bought 1,000 ounces of silver when the price was $33 an ounce recently the price was $22 an ounce how much Less is lavinias silver worth than when she bought it
When Lavinia bought the silver, its total worth was 1,000 ounces * $33/ounce = $<<1000*33=33000>>33,000.
Recently, the silver's worth has changed to 1,000 ounces * $22/ounce = $<<1000*22=22000>>22,000.
Therefore, the silver is worth $33,000 - $22,000 = $<<33000-22000=11000>>11,000 less than when she bought it. Answer: \boxed{11,000}.
