Let X be the coat's price.

The shirt's price is X/5.

The pants and the shirt cost $100, so the pants price is $100 - X/5.

The pants and coat costs ($100 - X/5) + X = $244.

Combining like terms and subtracting $100 from both sides, we get 4/5*X = $144.

Dividing both sides by 4/5, we get X = $180.
