Does your baby also drink breastmilk if your babies only on formula feeds then you can give it on demand and maximum you can give in every 2 to 3 hours is 80-90 ML.
Prepare the formula by one scoop in 30 ML and this way if you are taking 90 ML you need to add three scoops

60ml every 2 hourly or 80ml every 3 hourly.
But please remember the feed should be ADLIB
Meaning it should be given as much as baby wants to have.
above values should be the minimum
