I'll hazard a "simplistic" answer...and only for a traditional 401k, not a Roth 401k.

IF your income for the year puts you entirely in the following ~tax brackets, you would have to put the following approx. amounts in over the full year of 2024 (total, not monthly) to eliminate ~$7,000 in Federal taxes.
Bracket | Amount int 401k (not exact)
10% ~70,000 (yeah, this is not possible)
24% ~29,200 (over the 23,000 max, unless age 50+)
32% ~21,800
35% ~20,000
But you get the idea.
