If you have a utility such as some of the results for a Google search like commify comma insertion linux OR unix you could use:
Code:
$ commify $(printf "%.f" "$FLOAT")
1,144,750,000,000,000

With a system like:
Code:
OS, ker|rel, machine: Linux, 3.16.0-4-amd64, x86_64
Distribution        : Debian 8.9 (jessie) 
bash GNU bash 4.3.30
commify - ( local: RepRev 1.3, ~/bin/commify, 2014-10-09 )

Best wishes ... cheers, drl

NAME

       values - machine-dependent values

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

       This file contains a set of manifest constants, conditionally defined for particular processor architectures.

       The  model  assumed  for  integers  is binary representation (one's or two's complement), where the sign is represented by the value of the
       high-order bit.

	      The number of bits in a specified type (e.g., int).

	      The value of a short integer with only the high-order bit set
			     (in most implementations, 0x8000).

	      The value of a long integer with only the high-order bit set
			     (in most implementations, 0x80000000).

	      The value of a regular integer with only the high-order bit set
			     (usually the same as or

	      The maximum value of a signed short integer
			     (in most implementations, 0x7FFF == 32767).

	      The maximum value of a signed long integer
			     (in most implementations, 0x7FFFFFFF == 2147483647).

	      The maximum value of a signed regular integer
			     (usually the same as or

	      The maximum value of a single-precision floating-point number,
			     and its natural logarithm.

	      The maximum value of a double-precision floating-point number,
			     and its natural logarithm.

	      The minimum positive value of a single-precision floating-point number,
			     and its natural logarithm.

	      The minimum positive value of a double-precision floating-point number,
			     and its natural logarithm.

	      The number of significant bits in the mantissa of a single-precision
			     floating-point number.

	      The number of significant bits in the mantissa of a double-precision
			     floating-point number.
