You can use NumberFormat class which offers to format of numbers based on a given Locale. Given code in Kotlin

val number = 10
val formatter = NumberFormat.getInstance(Locale.US)
text_view.text = formatter.format(number)

Or, in case if you want to change number as per to its currency formatting, you can do the same with the help of same class.

val formatter = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(Locale.US)
text_view.text = formatter.format(number)
