Most of them will not live to become adults. By producing a large number of young, it helps assure that SOME will live to become adults, and reproduce. Otherwise, all frogs and fish would have died long ago.

Why is the fish egg is larger than the human egg?

An obvious reason is that the fertilised fish egg must survive and grow independent of the mother's nourishment, whereas human embryos grow within the womb and are nourished directly and continuously by the mother. The human egg therefore doesn't require a store of nutrients, whereas the fish egg must contain all the energy the growing fish embryo will require until it hatches.
