Katherine needs to perform approximately 60 haircuts each month to cover her monthly expenses of $1,089.72, given that she charges $18 per haircut. This is calculated by dividing her total expenses by the price per haircut. Since she can't perform a fraction of a haircut, we round to the nearest whole number, resulting in 60 haircuts.
