Math Problem Statement
In a zoo, 3 lions eat as much food as 4 leopards, while 5 bears eat as much as 9 leopards. If they have enough food for 9 lions and 14 leopards for 30 days, how long will this food last if there are 12 lions, 10 bears and 5 leopards?

Formulas
f_lion = (4/3) * f_leopard
f_bear = (9/5) * f_leopard
Total food supply = 30 * (9 lions + 14 leopards)
Food consumption = (Number of lions * f_lion) + (Number of bears * f_bear) + (Number of leopards * f_leopard)
