First you need to distribute any numbers outside of the parenthesis through the parenthesis (that was a horrible explanation I'm sorry...)
2(2x+5)=4(x+3)
4x+10=4x+3
then you try to get x on one side of the equation so you can solve for it.
4x-4x=0
10≠3 , therefore there are no solutions to the equation
