Using ACN Tables

Hi

I have 2 queries regarding the ACN tables.

Q.1. Determining the ACN if the mass of aircraft is different from that given in the ACN tables?

e.g. An A/C XYZ (in ACN Tables) has a Mass of 350,000 and a corresponding ACN of 90.

If an A/C which is of same type as above (i.e. XYZ) has a different mass value i.e. 340,000, then can we adjust the ACN value considering it a linear relation like:

340/350 = 0.97 so that the ACN becomes 90 x 0.97 = 87.3

or the relation is not linear?

Q.2. Where or How is "Load on one main gear (given in %)" used in routine calculations?

Thanks
