It is short for “How do you figure that…..”

As you know, “facts and figures” means= facts and numbers, the math.

When you ‘figure out’ something, you solve the problem.

Hence, your question means = How do you mean?

the person used bad grammar out of laziness. it’s short for “how do you figure?”, or “why do you think that?”

” How you figure ? ” is a slightly-illiterate version of ” How did / do you figure ( it out ) ? “

“How did you arrive at that conclusion?”.

“Please explain your analysis”.
