Can anybody help me on this?

I have inputs between 55 and 65 i.e any number between these numbers and inclusive of 55 and 65. When I receive each of these numbers I want to uniquely match the received number to a number between 65 and 70 inclusive. I don't care if the match is not unique but it is unique it would be more comfortable for further processing. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you. PS: numbers are rational numbers.

What do you mean match? Provide a small example.
Is this what you meant?
x = 58;
y = 65+((x-55)/11)*6;

Where:
65 = minimum of 65,70
11 = numel(55:65)
6 = numel(65:70);
55 = minimum of 55,65

x in [A,B] maps to [C,D] as

C + (D-C) .* (x-A)./(B-A)

The mapping is unique if the range of C to D is at least as great as the range
from A to B. In your case, your 65 to 70 range is only roughly half the size
of the 55 to 65 range, so duplicates will occur. You probably won't notice,
though, because in your case, the original values would have to be closer
together than 1.4210854715202e-14 in order to map to end up mapped together in
the new range.

Thank you, man! that was one big help. Just one thing. For x = 65 it goes beyond 70. May be I use floor function to correct that

No, you use the min function for that.
y = min([y 70]); % clip to 70 or less.
