"How'' adjective or adverb?

''She is good or beautiful" If I want to describe the subject she, then I have to question the subject with "How'' like "how is she?" On the other hand, here He can run very fast If I want to describe the verb run, then I have to question again with "how" like "how fast can she run?''

So my question is that is it possible to use How both for the adjective qualifier and '' the adverb qualifier''?
