Generating one random number from a given range of numbers.

This may be a poor question but I can't seem to find a usable answer. I need to generate one random number from a range 2/3 X to X
So if I were to set X to 30 I would want one random value from 20 to 30 likewise if I set X to 300 I would want a value from 200 to 300...
Does anyone have any suggestions for how to go about this? Thanks in advance.

R = randi([IMIN,IMAX],...) returns an array containing integer values drawn from the discrete uniform distribution on IMIN:IMAX

Hi Rich,
If I understood your question, I would do it this way: 1/3*X*rand()+2/3*X; rand() returns a single uniformly distributed random number in the interval (0,1).
