Could you please tell me what does “how you’ve been” and “what have you been up to” mean? What should I replay to this?

How you’ve been (or as I say, How have you been?) basically means “How are you?”

“What have you been up to?” means “What have you been doing?”

Hope this helps

it’s a basic greeting, just like “how are you?”
