You can use toPlainString method of java.math.BigDecimal:

val floatValue = "1200000000".toFloat

new java.math.BigDecimal(floatValue).toPlainString 

res0: String = 1200000000

What do you want exactly?

If you want to print a number with a given format you can use this:

println(f"$myNumber%1.14f")

The output will be:

1200000000.00000000000000
