It’s hard to be exact from the information given. Times will vary dependent on how large was the original recipe.
As a starting guideline, bake the two smaller loaves at half the original times.
But/and during the second uncovered baking use other criteria in addition to time… look at color, tap the loaves to see if they make the characteristic hollow sound when done.
OR, bake one of the smaller loaves at the shorter times, make notes of how long it actually took, then use those times for the second small loaf.
