Why are bacteria able to produce large number in such a short period of time?

Bacteria use binary fission( splitting into two identical bacteria) to reproduce, They do this at such a high rate and short time that can grow in number very fast. They reproduce so quickly so they can survive because if they did not have the numbers they had they would be killed much more quickly.
