How much time do you serve on a 20 year sentence in state prison?

Twenty years. A prison sentence is typically issued in two parts, the minimum (the time you must serve before being eligible for parole) and the maximum (the time you must serve--statutory time--before you would be discharged). If the minimum is twenty years, and there is no "Good Time" law in your state, then you will serve twenty years before being considered for parole. With such a long minimum, it is highly unlikely you will receive parole your first time up. It is most likely that you will serve until the halfway mark between your minimum and maximum. If the maximum (statutory time) is twenty years, refer to your minimum and check your expected release date. If you were given a flat twenty year sentence, you will serve twenty years, provided there is no Disciplinary Credit awarded in your state.

After someone's parole is revoked how long does the state have to tell that person their sentence?

If you were on parole, then you KNEW what your original sentence was. If your parole was revoked there is no need to tell you how much time you have to serve - it will be the same as your original sentence. UNLESS - your parole was revoked because you committed another offense. THEN - not only will you serve your original sentence your prison time will be increased by whatever the sentence is for your new offense.
