¿Cómo estás? or if the situation is more formal ¿Cómo está (usted)? ¿Qué tal? also means the same.

If it is to a friend or someone younger than you, you would say ¿Cómo estas? If it is a more formal situation, such as to a boss or teacher, you would say ¿Cómo esta? ¿Cómo te va? is another option, but commonly used more like "How's it going?"

if it is an informal situation you use the phrase ¿Cómo estás? but if it is a formal situation you use ¿Cómo está usted?
