1. **State the problem:** We need to calculate $20 \div \frac{5}{7}$ and simplify the answer.
2. **Recall the rule for division of fractions:** Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal.
3. **Apply the rule:**
$$20 \div \frac{5}{7} = 20 \times \frac{7}{5}$$
4. **Multiply the numbers:**
$$20 \times \frac{7}{5} = \frac{20 \times 7}{5}$$
5. **Simplify the fraction:**
$$\frac{20 \times 7}{5} = \frac{\cancel{20}^4 \times 7}{\cancel{5}^1} = 4 \times 7 = 28$$
6. **Final answer:**
$$28$$
