"1% to 20%"?
I humbly suggest you take a closer look at that LM555 datasheet linked to above. If you do, you'll notice that there are no specified min/max limits on threshold and trigger voltages. Therefore, when attempting to predict the performance of a 555 application circuit, you're left with exactly two choices:
1. Use the typical values,, or else
2. Make up totally arbitrary atypical assumptions for the values.
I you choose #2, it's only reasonable to expect that you'll specify upfront what your assumptions, being arbitrary, were.
