iCloud photo backups not matching


here situation. trying sister (remotely). getting constant message phone not being backed because there not enough space. ok..so go manage storage in icloud in settings. shows next backup size 5.7 gb. shows photo library 5.1 gb of it. go photos , copy of photos , videos off of phone , onto computer. delete photos , videos copied phone.
when check general, usage, manage storage, can see "photos , camera" takes 1.2 gb. when go icloud manage storage, still shows next backup needs 5.7 gb total, , photos still 5.1 gb.

main question "what photos selected backed up?" because obvious if there 1.2 gb of photos on phone, , wants put 5.1...there missing , not understanding how apple set way backs stuff up. may have been 3 months since last backup. still trying backup photo stream past 3 months? though have deleted them phone? make sense?

insight matter appreciated. , how @ current set of info on phone.

thanks, jerry
