Bacteria multiply by cell division, i.e. they can reproduce from one organism. How many bacteria you would have depends on a large number of factors, the main one being the time period! Other factors include type of bacteria and temperature.

If there was one bacteria on a piece of meat left in a nice warm place for five hours how many would be present at the end of this time?

Bacteria breed at different rates.The answer to your question would depend on what the bacterium was. IF we could assume that it is a bacteria that doubles every 20 minutes under these particular conditions, 1 bacterium would turn into 214 or 16384 bacteria. Again, realize that growth rates will vary and, when it comes to food, you almost never start out with only one bacterium.
