given that:- you can cut 3 lawns in 5 hours, and your friend can cut 5 lawns in 8 hours.

it means, 3 lawns= 5 hours

1 lawn=5/3 hours

1 lawn= 1.67 hour (lawn cut by you)

5 lawns= 8 hour

1 lawn= 8/5 hour

1 lawn= 1.6 hour (lawn cut by friend)

so 1.67>1.6 so you take more time than friend

so friend cutting the lawn faster.
