Balance between breast & formula milk

My babies stomach is not getting full solely with breast milk so have to give him formula milk. Can you please recommend how much formula can be given to new born in a day ? Currently he consumes roughly 90ml per day, but he doesn't seem satisfied with hunger as rest of the time it's breast milk

If he's fully finishing all that you prepared, mix 1 more oz next time. Give breast milk folled by formula or instead of a feed if breasts don't seem full enough
