Measure from the front edge of the pitching rubber to the back tip of home plate.
From the front of the mound to the back of the plate
The pitcher's mound is 10 inches higher than homeplate.
60 feet 6 inches like the MLB
The mound is 40 feet away, except in college and some traveling leagues where it is 43 feet. (fastpitch)
The minor league uses the same distances as the MLB. So the pitchers mound is exactly 60ft 6" away from homeplate
Unless they've recently changed it, distance from the rubber to the center of home plate is sixty feet, six inches.
60 feet 6 inches

Pitchers mound
This is because the rules of baseball say the mound is a distance from homeplate that is less than halfway the distance between homeplate and 2nd base. The distance is the same between each base in order (the same from home to 1st, 1st to 2nd, 2nd to 3rd, 3rd to home.) This results in the distance between homeplate and 2nd equal to the distance between 1st and 3rd. If you draw a line between homeplate and 2nd, and a line between 1st and 3rd, the lines will intersect in the center of the baseball diamond. However, the center point will be behind the pitcher's mound. You can use the Pythagorean Theorem to prove the distance from the mound to home is less than the center point, but that is another question. (Hint: The distance squared from home to first plus the distance squared from first to second divided by 2).
