How do pull ups use back muscles?

I know that exercises like pull ups and chin ups incorporate your back muscle but I don’t understand how. Your arms are doing the whole movement of lifting you up.

If you’re performing them with just your arms then you’re doing them incorrectly.

From a totally hanging position you must tighten your lats and pull your scapulas together and downwards before engaging your arms.
