You know the relation between bulk density and dry density by using that you will get the answer.

Dry density = Bulk density/(1+w).
Bulk density = Total weight/Volume.
W = Water content.
Bulk density = Total weight/Volume.
W = Water content.

Yd = Y/1+w,
But Y = W/V,
So, Yd = W/V(1+w).
But Y = W/V,
So, Yd = W/V(1+w).
