in here you can add up the things that are likely to be included, photos as well as app data is include… but, not the apps themselves. I doubt your backup is large enough to be near that, but it can be. My iPad backup is 4.2Gb and my iPHone fluctuates between 1.3Gb and 11.9Gb, depending on how many photos I've taken without dumping to my Mac.
