Curving edges of shape like a circle

Hi, so I need to curve the edges of this shape to appear as if they're being constrained by a circle, and I'm not sure how to do this.  The model I created is attached at the bottom.  The model I'm trying to build has a listing of R = 2.50, but I've tried every filleting option there is, and nothing is working quite right.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Do you have some sort of reference image or url?

 

First thing I notice is that your Sketch1 is not constrained and you have a bunch of unnecessary duplicated dimensions.

 

I recommend you start here -

Thanks a lot for the quick replies.  The solution is supposed to look something like this:

As you can see in the bottom right, it gives a value of R=2.5, and I'm not sure what that value represents or how to implement it.  And yes, I am new to inventor.

Extrude circle through all with the Intersection option.
