Answer:

4

Explanation:

The scale factor during a dilation is proportion from one of the image's defining lengths (such as its radius) to the preimage's corresponding length.

In this problem, we can find the proportion between the spheres' radii:

(radius of image) / (radius of preimage)

4 / 1 = 4
