Who can answer about differences in following phrases:"pretty well" and "quite well".¶These are phrases or expressions so the question is not pertaining to synonyms which refers to words only. Therefore they are definitely not synonyms because they are two different words 'pretty' and 'quite'.

Who can answer about differences in following phrases:"pretty well" and "quite well".
¶quite / fairly / rather / pretty¶Look at these examples:¶The exam was fairly difficult.¶The exam was quite difficult.¶The exam was rather difficult.¶Quite is a little stronger than fairly, and rather is a little stronger than quite. Rather is not very common in North American English; pretty has the same meaning and this is used in informal British English too: The exam was pretty difficult.¶In British English quite has two meanings: I feel quite tired today (= fairly tired). With adjectives that describe an extreme state (‘non-gradable’ adjectives) it means ‘completely’ or ‘absolutely’: I feel quite exhausted. With some adjectives, both meanings are possible. The speaker’s stress and intonation will show you which is meant: Your essay is quite good (= fairly good — it could be better); Your essay is quite good (= very good, especially when this is unexpected).¶In North American English quite usually means something like ‘very’, not ‘fairly’ or ‘rather’. Pretty is used instead for this sense.¶(source: oxfordlearnersdictionaries)
