    Relative density is defined as:

    dr = ds / dw

    where:

    dr: relative density

    ds: density of the substance.

    dw: density of water.

    In this case we have the relative density of oak wood:

    dr = 0.64.

    We want to find the density of the substance: ds

    Therefore we need to know the density of water in the cgs unit system:

    dw = 1g / c ^ 3

    Finally:

    ds = dr * dw

    ds = 0.64 * 1 g / cm ^ 3

    ds = 0.64 g / c ^ 3

    The density of the oak wood in cgs is 0.64 g / cm ^ 3
