HOTSPOT
You have a server named Server1. Server1 runs Windows Server 2012. A user named Admin1 is a member of
the local Administrators group.
You need to ensure that Admin1 receives a User Account Control (UAC) prompt when attempting to open
Windows PowerShell as an administrator.
Which setting should you modify from the Local Group Policy Editor? To answer, select the appropriate setting
in the answer area.
Answer: 
Explanation:
Answer is correct.
Explanation:
User Account Control: Run all administrators in Admin Approval Mode should me enabled first to switch on Admin Approval Mode. As explained below this and related UAC policy settings must also be set appropriately.
After this Enabled then User Account Control: Use Admin Approval Mode for the built-in Administrator account should be enabled to ensure that Admin1 receives a User Account Control (UAC) prompt when attempting to open Windows PowerShell as an administrator.
So User Account Control: Run all administrators in Admin Approval Mode is the most important to Enable.
—————————————————————
User Account Control: Use Admin Approval Mode for the built-in Administrator account
This policy setting controls the behavior of Admin Approval Mode for the built-in Administrator account.
The options are:
• Enabled: The built-in Administrator account uses Admin Approval Mode. By default, any operation that requires elevation of privilege will prompt the user to approve the operation.
• Disabled: (Default) The built-in Administrator account runs all applications with full administrative privilege.

User Account Control: Run all administrators in Admin Approval Mode (Windows 2012)
User Account Control: Turn on Admin Approval Mode(Windows 2008)
This policy setting controls the behavior of all User Account Control (UAC) policy settings for the computer. If you change this policy setting, you must restart your computer.
The options are:
• Enabled: (Default) Admin Approval Mode is enabled. This policy must be enabled and related UAC policy settings must also be set appropriately to allow the built-in Administrator account and all other users who are members of the Administrators group to run in Admin Approval Mode.
• Disabled: Admin Approval Mode and all related UAC policy settings are disabled. Note: If this policy setting is disabled, the Security Center notifies you that the overall security of the operating system has been reduced.

I agree with the above but isn’t powershell considered a windows binary?
So this setting should be changed as well: prompt for consent for non-windows binaries

You are correct but that would be the second step, first you need to enable the Admin Approval mode THEN change the Behavior of elevation prompt setting
