The formal way to ask "How are you?" in Spanish is "¿Cómo está?" So, the correct response is:

¿Cómo está?

wrong

I apologize for any confusion. In Spanish, "¿Cómo está?" is indeed the formal way to ask "How are you?" while "¿Cómo estás?" is informal.

To clarify:

  • Formal: ¿Cómo está?
  • Informal: ¿Cómo estás?

If the context requires both answers, the response stating that both ways are acceptable might be appropriate in a different context, but for the specific question "How would you ask 'How are you?' formally?" the correct response would be "¿Cómo está?"

If there's something specific you'd like to clarify or further ask about, please let me know!
