To be grammatically correct, yes. The phrase needs a comma. Anytime you use the word "but" in the middle of a sentence that connects two separate sentence topics together in one sentence without making a new sentence, you need a comma.
For example:
"The symptoms of the Bubonic Plague include, but are not limited to: fever, chills, black pustule's, nausea, death, etc."
"I grow weary of performing such mundane tasks as sitting and doing nothing, but I need the money so I will perform them nonetheless."

How do you write one billion two hundred seventy-four million nine hundred fifteen thousand in standard form?
1,274,915,000. A trick is that you place a comma whenever there's a billion, million, thousand, hundred, etc. in your sentence. So you would write it as 1 (comma) 274 (comma) 915 (comma) 000. You need the zeros at the end because a billion always has nine places after the first comma. Since there were only six, that means the rest has to be zeros.
