To find the number of marbles \( m \) in the bag, we can use the equation based on how the marbles were distributed among the players. Since Joe divides the marbles evenly among 4 players and each player gets 16 marbles, the equation can be set up as:

\[
m = 4 \times 16
\]

Now, we can solve the equation for \( m \):

\[
m = 4 \times 16 = 64
\]

Therefore, the number of marbles in the bag is \( m = 64 \).
