If e = MC2 (squared), then matter would be:

M = e/C2 (squared)

Your question is not specific enough. There is no formula for matter. If by "matter" you meant "mass" there are many formulas, not just one. Matter comes in discrete units (rather than infinitesimal units), those units being particles. Protons, electrons and neutrons are examples of such units (though protons and neutrons are not fundamental units since they can be broken apart into smaller units). One possible "formula for matter" would be: m = (#protons)*(mass of proton)+(#electrons)+(mass of electron)+(#neutrons)+(mass of neutrons) which would yield an object's non-relativistic rest mass. Another formula for matter is the relativistic formula for mass: m = (rest mass) * gamma = (rest mass)/sqrt(1-(v^2 - c^2)), where c is the speed of light which is 3*10^8 m/s which is 186,000 miles per second.

The formula for matter is mass multiplied by particles, or in chemical terms, the chemical formula representing the elements that make up a substance.
