Mach Number calculation on Cost Index

How cruise mach number could be calculated if particular Cost Index is given? For instance there is no mention of Cost Index at all in FPPM of B737-300-400-500, B763 and a brief mention of it in B772 and B744 FPPMs.

Am I correct that mach number and fuel flow for given CI can be somehow calculated by adjusting data from Long Range Cruise tables? If so, then how?


Thank you
