The so called Gell-Mann formula, a prescription designed to provide an inverse to the Inonu-Wigner Lie algebra contraction, has a great versatility and potential value. This formula has no general validity as an operator expression. The question of applicability of Gell-Mann's formula to various algebras and their representations was only partially treated. The validity constraints of the Gell-Mann formula for the case of sl(n,R) and su(n) algebras are clarified, and the complete list of representations spaces for which this formula applies is given. Explicit expressions of the sl(n,R) generators matrix elements are obtained, in these cases, by making use of the Gell-Mann formula.
