I keep getting wrong answers for this problem how do I do it?

solving for angular acceleration

Two blocks are attached by strings of negligible mass to a pulley with two radii R1
= 0.26 m and R2 = 0.59 m. The strings are
wrapped around their respective radii so that the blocks can move either up or down. The pulley has a moment of inertia about its
center I = 0.136 kg · m², and is supported by a bearing with negligible friction. If block 1 has a mass of 2.3 kg and block 2 has a
mass of 0.34 kg, what is the magnitude of the angular acceleration of the pulley?
